Scaphoid metastasis as the first sign of occult gastroesophageal junction cancer: A case report.
Authors
Abstract
Metastatic tumors of the hand are very rare. They are usually late manifestations of massive advanced malignancies. However, a small portion of acrometastases are indications of occult primary cancer. Here, we report an extremely rare case in which a scaphoid bone lesion was the initial manifestation and was found to be a metastasis from gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer.
