Abstract
Digital locations of hand mycetoma are rare. They are most often described within the broader context of hand mycetoma. Herein, we report three cases of digital mycetoma.
Case 1: A 33-year-old patient presenting with a mycetoma of the middle finger evolving for 5 years with osteitis of P1. A trans-P2 amputation was performed.
Case 2: A 57-year-old patient presenting with a mycetoma of the little finger evolving for 12 years without bone involvement. Management consisted of excision surgery.
Case 3: A 27-year-old patient presenting with a mycetoma of the ring finger evolving for 7 years with osteitis of P1 and fistula. Extension to the base of the little finger was noted. Digital amputation was refused by the patient.
