Abstract EN
A twelve-year-old male with 6-week history of atraumatic pain in the lateral aspect of his right forefoot not responding to conservative treatment were seen in the orthopedic clinic.
The pain was worse at night and relieved with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Plain radiographs and MRI revealed features of osteoid osteoma of the right fifth metatarsal bone.
The osteoid osteoma was removed by curettage, which gave the patient a complete relief of his presenting symptoms.
This case demonstrates the rare anatomic position of osteoid osteoma.
