Four cases of osteoid osteoma of the distal phalanx are described. The difficulty of diagnosis is stressed. Complete removal of the nidus is essential for surgical cure. Other modes of treatment are discussed and our series compared to other similar cases described in the literature.

AbstractOsteoid osteoma is a benign osteoblastic tumor, quite uncommon in the spine. We report a case of an osteoid osteoma involving the atlas in a 6-year-old boy, who presented with suboccipital pain and torticollis. Initial radiological findings were ambiguous as magnetic resonance imaging showed mainly edema of upper cervical soft tissues. The subsequent computed tomography depicted a lesion of left lamina of C1. As conservative treatment failed, the lesion was surgically resected and the patient became pain free. To our knowledge, this is the first case of osteoid osteoma involving the atlas associated with abnormal soft tissue reaction reported in literature.

Osteoid osteoma is a benign tumour of bone that rarely localises in the carpal bones. Its treatment by curettage and bone grafting is considered to be curative and its recurrence is thought to be rare. We report a case of an osteoid osteoma of the lunate, which recurred seven years after the initial operation. Recurrent osteoid osteoma of the lunate bone has not been reported in the literature. We present this case report for its atypical presentation and diagnostic difficulty and also to alert the readers of the possibility of an osteoid osteoma as a cause of the chronic unexplained wrist pain in young adults.
