Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common peripheral compression neuropathy and can be caused by many diseases and conditions, including the formation of gouty tophi in various structures of the tunnel. This publication provides a review of literature and a case report on Carpal tunnel syndrome in a 58-year-old male patient with tophaceous gout. The case is characterized by the extremely rare combination of median nerve compression and tendons dysfunction due to the tophi deposits in the flexor tendons of the hand.

This case report presents a lipofibromatous hamartoma of the median nerve in a 31-year-old man who presents local deformity and a sensory deficit in the nerve territory. The tumor was evaluated with magnetic resonance, computed tomography, and plain film radiography, studying the pathognomonic findings of this tumor. The patient did not want surgical treatment because of prior surgical sequelae. A prior surgical biopsy was reported as a peripheral nerve with normal axonal fascicles surrounded by abundant fibroadipose tissue. This tumor has a low incidence with less than 180 cases reported in the literature.

Lipofibromatous hamartoma is an uncommon tumor that causes nerve enlargement due to fatty adipose tissue infiltration in peripheral nerves being the median nerve at the carpal tunnel the most commonly affected site, typically associated with macrodactyly. Here we present a case which affected a digital branch of the median nerve
