A rare case of giant cell tumour of first metacarpal bone which was aggressive in its clinical behaviour but histologically benign, is reported in a thirty-one year old male. The tumour was excised en-bloc with disarticulation of the thumb and index finger with a gratifying result. The literature on giant-cell-tumour of the metacarpal bones is reviewed.

ABSTRACTwe present a case of a six-year-old male child with cleft hand deformity involving the dominant right hand. it was a rare case of atypical cleft hand with no missing tissue but cleft extending to metacarpal level and associated hypoplasia of thumb and index finger. as per manske′s classification of cleft hand our patient belongs to the class iii variety. there was associated malposition of the index finger with absence of first web space and syndactly of thumb and index finger at the metacarpal level. a modified snow-littler procedure was planned. the surgical plan involved closure of cleft, release of thumb and index finger syndactly and reconstruction of the first web space. the functional outcome was good considering hypoplasia of the index finger and thumb. depending upon the function of the thumb tendon transfers can be planned to augment thumb function at a later date along with correction of rotational deformities of the index and middle finger.

Sebaceous carcinoma is an aggressive tumor derived from adnexal epithelium of sebaceous gland and accounts for 1% of all cutaneous malignancy. Most commonly found at head and neck region. with sebaceous carcinoma in extrimity few than 100 cases have been formally documented. Since this lesion are uncommon, this lession tend to be misdiagnosed. Sebaceous carcinoma is a clinically innocuous appearing lesion with no pathognomonic features. Diagnosis is seldom made before operation and frequently misdiagnosed after operation We present our experienced with sebaceous carcinoma. female 45 years old, with history mass at her left hand grew rapidly during the past 4 months. At the beginning, there was a small wart over the little finger of her left hand that was not changing for the past 30 years. The patient then started scratching the wart until it fell off (1 year ago). The wound initially healed but then the same lesion grew back and became even larger. The patient repeated this habit and the lesion grew into its current size. The lesion itself started to bleed easily and became infected. During the past 4 months, patient also experienced the same lesion growing at her left index finger. Patient also complaint of pain which was localized to the lesion, non-radiating, and was felt increased when the patient scratched at the lesion. We performed resection of tumor and amputation at 4th and 5th fingers and also disarticulation at MCP joint 2nd finger and take a sample as histhopatological examination.

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.
