We present clinical and radiological features of a sand glass shaped suture granuloma on the dorsum of the hand and discuss the diagnostic imaging characteristics as well as the difficulties in the differantial diagnosis. The shape of the granuloma seems to be an exceptional characteristic of the case. Granulomatous masses must be kept in mind as an alter-native diagnosis in patients with previous trauma complaining tumor like masses in hand.
Bu yazımızda el dorsumunda kum saati şeklinde bir sütür granülomu vakasının klinik ve radyolojik bulgularını sunmayı ve radyolojik görüntüleme bulguları ile ayırıcı tanıdaki güç-lükleri tartışmayı amaçladık. Granülomun şekli olgunun istis-nai bir özelliği olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Travma öyküsü olan ve tümör benzeri şikayetlerle başvuran hastaların ayırıcı tanı-sında granülomatöz kitleler akılda tutulmalıdır.
