This study aims to present two patients who were operated on for metacarpal osteoid osteomas. Case Outline A 16-year-old female patient and an 18-year-old male patient were operated on for metacarpal osteoid osteomas. The major symptom was intermittent pain for both patients. After surgical excision of the niduses, the complaints resolved in both cases. Conclusion In the case of high suspicion for osteoid osteoma, computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging should be performed due to the risk of negative radiographic findings. Surgical excision is curative and a safe method of treatment.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOsteoid OsteomaMetacarpal BoneSurgical TreatmentA rare localization of osteoid osteoma - Presentation of two casesArticle1444557455355610.2298/SARH1610553SQ4Q3
