Abstract

Florida reactive periostitis is a benign clinical picture but with a clinical and radiological appearance, which, together with its low frequency, can lead to confusion with more serious conditions such as infections or malignant bone tumors. We present a 27-year-old male patient with no history of comorbidities, who began a year ago with alteration in the left hand, in the middle phalanx of the fifth finger, with no history of trauma. Imaging studies show a lifting of the periosteum with refinement of the cortical artery, without taking adjacent soft tissues. Excision and biopsy of the lesion were performed, confirming the diagnosis of florid reactive periostitis. The patient presented a favorable evolution with a decrease in volume increase, disappearance of pain three months after surgery
