Özet
Lipomas are common benign soft tissue tumors andmay appear in different anatomical regions of thebody. They are rarely seen in the hand. These lesions,in varying sizes, can cause some complications andclinical symptoms depending on the mass effect onthe anatomic region. Especially lesions in the hand,can cause carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), due to theproximity to the median nerve or to compressioneffect. In this article, the lipoma causing median nerveentrapment will be discussed, although it is notlocated just in the carpal tunnel but distally.
