Resumen (ES)
A case of pseudotumor of the pisiform vvith cronic pain in the hipothenar eminence
and compression neuropathy of the ulnar nerve in Guyon's canal in a 33 year old man is
reported. Pathologic diagnosis was consistent vvith hypertrophic fracture callus and focal degenerative
changes in the articular surface of the pisiform. Repetitive minor trauma in his job as a
miner, while using pneumatic hammer is presumed to be the main etiologic factor. Simple excision
of the pisiform was performed vvith excelent functional result at 6 months. The authors believe
that early inmobilization when the symptoms started, vvould have been the ideal treatment.
