Osteoid Osteoma of the Proximal Phalanx of the Great Toe in a 13-Year-Old Female Patient
Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign osteoblastic bone tumor typically involving the diaphysis or metaphysis in long tubular bones. OO in phalanges of the great toe has been rarely reported, and it is often challenging to differentiate with subacute osteomyelitis, bone abscess, or osteoblastoma. This ca...

Sumario: | Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign osteoblastic bone tumor typically involving the diaphysis or metaphysis in long tubular bones. OO in phalanges of the great toe has been rarely reported, and it is often challenging to differentiate with subacute osteomyelitis, bone abscess, or osteoblastoma. This case report describes an uncommon case of a 13-year-old female patient with subperiosteal OO in the proximal phalanx of the great toe. The atypical location of OO should be familiarized to include appropriate differential diagnosis and to ensure accurate diagnosis by radiologic evaluations. Surgical excision remains the benchmark for the treatment of OO with its advantages on direct visualization and histologic confirmation for the diagnosis. |
