Abstract

This case study presents the clinical manifestation, diagnostic assessment, and treatment of an 18-year-old right-handed Arab male patient who simultaneously had osteoid osteoma in the distal phalanx of the right middle finger and mallet finger deformity. The patient displayed a swan neck deformity and swelling of the distal phalanx, which progressively worsened over a span of 18 months. Radiographic and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings indicated osteoid osteoma, with potential alternative diagnoses including glomus tumor, osteomyelitis, and enchondromas. The soft tissue mass was surgically removed, confirming the diagnosis. This case emphasizes the significance of considering multiple causes in complex musculoskeletal presentations and the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach to management.
