Osteomas are benign, slow-growing osteogenic tumors commonly occurring in the craniofacial bones. Osteomas are characterized by the proliferation of compact and/or cancellous bone. It can be of a central, peripheral, or extraskeletal type. The peripheral type arises from the periosteum and is rarely seen in the mandible. The lingual surface and lower border of the body are the most common locat...

Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign osteogenic lesion that is extremely rare in jaws. It is characterized by proliferation of either cancellous or compact bone and can be central, peripheral or extraskeletal. Pain is a distinctive feature of this lesion accompanied by vasomotor disturbances, which occur long before radiographic and histopathology findings manifest. Here, we present a rare case rep...

103 rare case of peripheral osteoma of the zygoma. A 41-year-old male who was referred to our hospital presented with a painless firm mass in the left malar area in January 2013. The patient first noticed this lesion 10 years earlier and became concerned as it slowly enlarged. There was no history of a specific medical event, such as trauma. The patient also did not have systemic health problem...

  Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor that rarely involves joints. Although there are several reports of arthroscopic osteoid osteoma excisions, to our knowledge, there are no reports of this type of treatment for osteoid osteoma in carpal bones. We report two cases of arthroscopic (a person who had a pain in the left wrist and the other one with carpal tunnel syndrome) with excision of oste...

Extraskeletal osteochondroma is a variant of extraskeletal chondromas that are uncommon soft-tissue cartilaginous tumors. These tumors may undergo extensive enchondral ossification to form an extraskeletal osteochondroma. This report describes the case of a 39-year-old Japanese man with an extraskeletal osteochondroma arising on the plantar aspect of the foot.

Osteoid osteoma is a benign primary bone tumor containing a small region of abnormal osteoid with osteoblasts and variable surrounding reactive bone. Osteoid osteoma accounts for approximately 11% of all benign tumors.1 The majority of osteoid osteomas are monofocal with a single nidus. The orthopedic and radiology literature is scattered with several case reports of multicentric osteoid osteom...

Background and Objectives: Osteomas are the most common benign tumors of nasal cavity paranasal sinuses (PNSs). In this study, clinical features imaging findings were analyzed in patients with osteoma confirmed by ostiomeatal unit (OMU) computed tomography (CT) PNS CT, surgical treatment performed at our hospital was introduced.Methods: The Severance Clinical Research Analysis Portal (SCRAP) se...

Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor that when located on the base of the coracoids process of the scapula is very rare and diagnosis and treatment is often delayed because of its rarity. Almost any bone can be involved, but half of cases involve the femur or tibia. The radiologic features of osteoid osteoma are well known, but these tumors may present with unusual features and be easily misd...
