Abstract
Osteoid osteoma is a rare, very painful bone tumor. We report a series of eight patients with osteoid osteoma of the hand. The average age of our patients was 27 years old. On radiological imaging of the hand, the typical appearance of osteoid osteoma was present in 100% of the cases. Surgical treatment by en bloc excision and curettage of the tumor with filling with a cancellous graft gave fovariable results in our series.
Keywords: Osteoid osteoma, hand, cancellous graft.
