Abstract
Tumoral calcinosis of the hand is rare, and we present a case report of idi opathic tumoral calcinosis of the index finger, which posed a diagnostic pr oblem as it looked like an infection. We successfully removed the calcific deposit and there had been no recurrence one year after the operation.
