RESUMEN
Ulnar side wrist pain is a complex clinical situation because of the pathologies involving multiple closely located structures on the ulnar side of the wrist. Incidence of osseous lesions leading to ulnar side wrist pain is very rare. The effectiveness of commonly employed Magnetic resonance imaging, for diagnosing the pathology in the ulnar side of the wrist might be limited in diagnosing such osseous lesions and can lead to missed diagnosis. We herein present such a rare case of Osteoid osteoma of the hook of hamate presenting as ulnar side wrist pain. The condition, presented a "diagnostic challenge", where it required Computed Tomography to diagnose and guide for appropriate management.
