Two cases of nerve injury are reported following steroid injection as treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome. One caused an ulnar nerve lesion that recovered well. The other caused a more severe median nerve lesion which responded poorly to conservative treatment. Steroid injection for carpal tunnel syndrome is generally safe but nerve injury may occur and is difficult to treat.

This paper examines a case of extraskeletal chondroma in the hand of an 82-year-old female, first noticed about two years ago. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass in the carpal tunnel which extended from the wrist to the palm. The tumor was located between the thenar area and the hypothenar area at the palm level. There was no continuity to the carpal bone or radius bone. The entire size of the tumor was 120 mm × 45 mm × 42 mm. Although extraskeletal chondroma is sometimes seen, a large one in the hand is extremely rare. Since the tumor was too large to excise totally because median nerve entrapped it, it was divided into two parts and excised. After the operation, there was no neurological deficit or pain in the median nerve lesion.
