Abstract
Finger pain is a common presenting symptom. While some of the causes are rare and easily forgotten, they may be significant. Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation is a rare benign tumour. Malignant transformation has been described. The distinctive radiological features and its differential diagnoses are discussed.
