摘要
A pseudotumor of the palm was due to an anomalous flexor digitorum superficialis muscle belly. Magnetic resonance imaging is an excellent diagnostic tool to define the three dimensional extension of such an anomaly. Surgical resection of the anomalous muscle belly resulted in a complete relief of all symptoms.
