Florid reactive periostitis is a rare benign bone lesion that occurs most often in the phalanges of hands and feet. Histologic evaluation is commonly required to distinguish this benign lesion from clinically indistinguishable malignant and infectious disorders. The lesion is typically self-limiting or cured by local excision; however, in very aggressive cases ray amputation may be indicated. The authors report a case of florid reactive periostitis affecting the thumb with satisfactory outcome and without recurrence at 2-year follow-up.

November 2024
From the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, SUNY Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, NY (Albanese, Lynch, and Damron), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA (Eswaran).
Beyond enchondromas, the most common bone tumors of the hand, there are numerous less common benign bone tumors and mimickers with which orthopaedic and hand surgeons should be familiar. These include other benign cartilage tumors, cystic lesions, osteogenic tumors, giant cell tumor, and fibrous dysplasia. Particularly unique lesions include bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (Nora lesion), florid reactive periostitis, turret exostosis (acquired osteochondroma), giant cell reparative granuloma (solid aneurysmal bone cyst), and epidermoid cyst.

Cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) is classified, by the World Health Organization as a benign fibro-osseous lesion related to the tooth and periapical area of the jaws and is considered as a benign reactive process appearing from the apical periodontium in close relation with the apices of teeth. Usually, it is asymptomatic, discovered accidentally, and affecting particularly middle-aged African women. There are four subtypes distinguished of the lesion: periapical (PCOD), focal (FCOD), florid (FLCOD) and familial florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FFLCOD).
