Abstract

Solitary primary non-Hodgkin bone lymphoma of the hand is a rare entity with only 3 cases reported in the literature. We report the case of a 77-year-old patient with isolated large B-cell bone lymphoma of the proximal phalanx of the little finger without rheumatoid arthritis or methotrexate treatment. The patient was treated with digital amputation and at 6 months’ follow-up showed no relapse or dissemination of the disease.
