ABSTRACT
We report a case with locking of the metacarpophalangeal (MP) joint of the thumb in a 15-year-old high school baseball catcher, which was caused by an intra-articular loose body arising from osteochondritis dissecans. The loose body was removed arthroscopically, enabling early return to full MP joint function.
