Bone granulomas (BGs) due to foreign bodies are a rare condition, especially in children, with only few cases reported in literature.

description Bone granulomas (BGs) due to foreign bodies are a rare condition, especially in children, with only few cases reported in literature. As foreign bodies are not always visible on imaging, BGs can mimic bone tumors. We hereby present a case of a six-year-old boy with histopathologically confirmed BG of his right hand fifth finger due to intraosseous foreign bodies, along with imaging work-up.
