Hand oleoma
Oleoma (synonyms: lipogranuloma, oleoscleroma, lipoid granuloma, etc.) is a focus of chronic inflammation characterized by the presence of small cysts lined by large cells containing fat and giant multinucleated cells in the infiltrate. Oleoma usually occurs at the site of injection of oily solutions of drugs. The usual places of localization of injected granulomas (oleomas) are, as a rule, the gluteal area, the outer surface of the shoulder, and the scapular area. Our clinical observations show that the cause of oleoma formation is the injection of liquid vaseline, and in an unusual place - in the tissues of the hand (2 cases - three hands).
