Osteoid osteomas are characterized clinically by a pattern of nocturnal pain which is exquisitely sensitive to salicylates. Etiology for the pain has been ascribed by previous investigators to the presence of nonmyelinated nerve fibers or to the effect of prostaglandins. In an effort to corroborate
Osteoblastomas are benign bone tumors that produce prostaglandin and promote inflammation. The aim of the present study was to describe the clinical and radiological characteristics of a pediatric osteoblastoma case over an 8-month postoperative follow-up. The case involved an 11-year-old female
Osteoid osteomas are common lesions, constituting one-eighth of the benign bone tumors. Their size (less than 1.5 cm) and characteristic radiographic and clinical presentation are usually diagnostic. Response to salicylates is quite variable and not a reliable sign. Extremely high levels of
BACKGROUND
Several reports have shown peritumoral edema accompanying primary bone tumors demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, the mechanism of this inflammatory reaction is still unclear. The authors postulated that the reaction was caused by some chemical mediators including
Osteoid osteomas are benign bone-forming tumors that despite their small size (<2.0 cm) characteristically produce severe nocturnal bone pain that is relieved by aspirin. This typical clinical presentation is virtually unique among bone tumors. Histologically, osteoid osteomas are circumscribed
Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone forming neoplasm that is characterized by its small size (less than 2 cm), self-limited growth, and the tendency to cause extensive reactive changes in the adjacent tissue. The lesion classically presents with severe pain at night that is dramatically relieved by
