This paper presents a rare case of a mass located on the volar face of the wrist, which translocated to the palmar region under pressure. An examination revealed a 3x3 cm mass on the palmar face of the wrist that was painless and soft on palpation. A region measuring 2x2 cm on the skin of the palmar region whitened when pressure was applied to the mass. The mass was removed and a pathological examination confirmed the presence of a cystic foreign body reaction secondary to the presence of wooden foreign bodies.
Key words: Mobile mass, hand and wrist mass, cystic foreign body reaction
