Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor. A few cases of metacarpal osteoid osteoma have been reported, but the phalanges are the most frequent sites in the hand, followed by the carpal bones. We report a case of an osteoid osteoma of the right first metacarpal bone in a 32-year-old woman. The clinical and radiographic findings along with the pathology results are presented. At the 1 year follow-up there was no evidence of recurrence. Finally, Osteoid osteoma of the metacarpal bones should be considered in the diagnosis of chronic pain in the hand of a young patient, presenting with or without a history of previous injury
