Solitary Osteochondroma Of The Metacarpal – A Case Report

Solitary osteochondroma is a rare benign bone tumor of the hand that arises from the cortical surface. The diagnosis is established using imaging techniques and confirmed by histological examination. Important differential diagnoses include Nora’s lesion and Turret exostosis. Treatment typically involves surgical management, with complete excision being the primary approach. We report the case of a 64-year-old woman with a solitary osteochondroma of the metacarpal. After eight-month follow-up, the functional outcomes were excellent.

Abstract

Solitary osteochondroma is a rare benign bone tumor of the hand that arises from the cortical surface. The diagnosis is established using imaging techniques and confirmed by histological examination. Important differential diagnoses include Nora’s lesion and Turret exostosis. Treatment typically involves surgical management, with complete excision being the primary approach. We report the case of a 64-year-old woman with a solitary osteochondroma of the metacarpal. After eight-month follow-up, the functional outcomes were excellent.
