Abstract
|
|
|
|
Skeletal metastasis are common in terminal malignant tumor patients over 30% of incidence, but hand acrometastasis are very rare under 0.1% in terminal cancer patients. We have reported 5 cases of hand acrometastasis herewith the review of literatures. In the preterminal malignant tumor patients, sudden painful swelling on fingers and osteoporosis on X-rays are thought to be the earliest sign of hand metastasis.
