Abstract
|
|
|
|
Osteoid osteoma is a benign osteoblastic tumor composed of osteoid and atypical bone, with a loose, highly vascular fibrous marrow. The tumor has been reported in most of the bones of the body, but it is infrequently localized to the hand. The scaphoid is the carpal bone involved most frequently. Typically the lesions are painful and respond to aspirin. Roentgenologic finding of the central area of lucency surrounded by sclerotic bone often is diagnostic. Block excision with bone grafting is an acceptable method of treatment. We report a case of osteoid osteoma in scaphoid with a review of the literature.
