    Trigger finger is a common disease, and stenosing tenosynovitis is the most frequent cause of this condition in middle-aged women. We report a case of surgical excision in a 16-year-old adolescent male with trigger finger symptoms caused by a solitary osteochondroma at the proximal end of the proximal phalanx. Although tumorous lesions are a rare cause of trigger finger, a differential diagnosis is necessary because the treatment strategy and surgical technique employed to treat this condition differ from those employed for common causes, such as stenosing tenosynovitis and pediatric trigger thumb.
