Abstract
Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone-forming neoplasm, first described by Jaffe in 1935 [1]. Approximately 10% of all benign bone tumors are osteoid osteomas [2, 3]. It is found most frequently in the second to third decade of life, and there is a pronounced male predominance (2:1 male-to-female predilection). Any portion of the skeleton may be involved, but it is often found (50–60% of cases) in the long bones of the lower extremity [3] and (between 19 and 31% of the cases) upper extremity [4, 5], whereas about 20% occur in the spine [6]. Only 2% of spinal osteoid osteomas are found in the sacrum [2, 7].
