Osteosarcoma of the hand is rare. We present a case report and a literature review that indicates an older median age of onset than conventional osteosarcoma. The predilection for these lesions to manifest in the metacarpophalangeal joints, particularly in the second and third digits, is in contrast to the more symmetrical distribution of metastatic cancer and correlates with the sites of most active growth during development of conventional osteosarcoma.
