Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation, or Nora's lesion, is a unique bony lesion that generally originates from the small bones of the hands and feet in young adults. We report a case of a bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation originating from the medial sesamoid of the first toe that was managed surgically by en bloc excision. At 5-year follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence.
