We report an atypical presentation of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the distal phalanx of the left thumb. On physical examination, there was no clinical evidence of a local lesion, but magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed multiple intraosseous cavities filled with fluid. A biopsy specimen showed a well-differentiated SCC, which was treated by amputation of the distal phalanx.
