Mesenchymal tumor
An extremely rare, benign or malignant mesenchymal tumor arising from the soft tissues. It is a distinctive tumor, which usually displays the following morphologic characteristics: low cellularity, myxoid changes, presence of spindled cells and osteoclasts, hemangiopericytoma-like vessels, hemorrhage, and osteoid-like matrix. It is associated with the presence of a paraneoplastic syndrome called osteogenic osteomalacia. This syndrome usually precedes the appearance of the tumor, and it is characterized by phosphaturia, hypophosphatemia, normal serum calcium levels, and decreased levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Patients present with bone and muscle pain, severe muscle weakness, fractures, gait disturbances, skeletal deformity, height loss, and slow growth. The metabolic disturbances improve or completely disappear after the complete resection of the tumor.

Hello Curofians! Please check my case. I have pain in my thumb for 1 month after a minor injury. No wound, no swelling. Little redness is there, as you can see in the images, which should have disappeared by now as the injury was 1 month back. No pain on palpation. Pain occurs with even minor twisting of the thumb and also with percussion in the marked region. Please check the x-ray & clinical images from today. Age - 33 years No comorbidity No pain in other joints as such.
