A case report of an unrecognized osteoid osteoma of the proximal femur

We present the case of a 59-year-old male patient with unrecognized osteoid osteoma in radiography as well as in magnetic resonance imaging. Computed tomography revealed osteoid osteoma that was successfully treated with percutaneous computed tomography guided radiofrequency ablation. The osseous pa...

Sumario:We present the case of a 59-year-old male patient with unrecognized osteoid osteoma in radiography as well as in magnetic resonance imaging. Computed tomography revealed osteoid osteoma that was successfully treated with percutaneous computed tomography guided radiofrequency ablation. The osseous pathology was underestimated on magnetic resonance imaging in the presented case and bone marrow edema led to incorrect diagnosis. The particular case emphasizes the value of computed tomography scans diagnosing an osteoid osteoma.
