Myoepithelial tumors only recently have been recognized as occurring primarily in soft tissue, and only a few cases have been described in the literature. The occurrence of these tumors in the hand is even more limited. In this article, we review the clinical, radiologic, and histologic features of a benign myoepithelioma of the hypothenar region of the left hand.

D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.
