The authors report a rare observation of a 60-year-old woman presenting with giant thenar lipoma associated with acroparesthesia due to compression of the median nerveby a lipoma. MRI is the exam of choice to study the local extent of the tumor, the histological examination after complete excision of the tumor remains the only means of diagnostic affirmation.
