Resumen
VALENCIA GONZALEZ, J. et al. Florid reactive periostitis: case report and update. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2009, vol.35, n.1, pp.61-68. ISSN 1989-2055.
Florid reactive periostitis is a benign lesion which can be confused with other more serious lesions such as infections and malignant bone tumours because of its clinical appearance, radiological image and low frequency. Treatment consists of local excision of the tumour, but can be more aggressive in case of dysfunction. In this paper we present the medical history, radiographic image, histology and treatment of a patient who suffered florid reactive periostitis in the proximate phalange of fourth finger in the right hand. An amputation of forth ray was done in order to improve hand movement.
