A clinical case of osteoblastoclastoma treatment of the third carpal bone of the left hand in the patient undergone a special treatment of breast cancer is presented in the article. The tumor of the hand undetected for a long period caused by the developed secondary lymphedema of the upper limb on the side of the operative intervention is considered as the peculiarity of this case. The patient has undergone the surgical treatment of osteoblastoclastoma of the third carpal bone. Tumor scraping and defect plastic replacement with a bone transplant from the eminence of the tibial bone were performed. One year after operation at the radiological control the complete accretion of bone transplants and integrity of locked plates were registered. Three years afterwards no signs of the tumor recurrence were found out. The treatment method of bone benign tumors including scraping and defect replacement by an autotransplants is considered as one of the optimal treatment ones of benign tumors of hand short tubular bones. The most acceptable donor zone for the bone transplant intake is considered to be an eminence of the tibial bone as an optimal combination of the cortical and cancellous bone substance occurs in this site, providing a complete restoration of the post-resection defect of short tubular mesopodial bones of the hand and phalanxes of fingers.
