Abstract
Many patients associated with non-traumatic wrist or hand pain receive symptomatic treatment. Although temporary improvements are seen with these treatments, the underlying cause is masked, and delayed, or missed. Two patients with osteoid osteoma (OO) localized in the capitate and proximal phalanx are presented in this article. OO is a
benign bone tumor typically seen in children, affecting long bones. While cases located in the upper extremities are shared, it is rare in the hand. Surgical intervention remains the primary treatment option. Favorable outcomes are achieved with complete excision of the nidus in an early-detected OO cases.
