Abstract: | OBJECTIVE: Osteoid osteomas are benign painful skeletal neoplasms that preferentially afflict young male patients and are readily treatable. This article focuses on the various imaging manifestations of the tumor, while also discussing its clinical presentation, pathogenesis, and treatment. CONCLUSION: Knowledge of the common imaging features of osteoid osteomas will improve our diagnosis of this condition, subsequently facilitating treatment and reducing morbidity. |
