Osteoid osteoma of the acetabulum

Abstract: Osteoid osteoma of the acetabulum can be expected to cause nonspecific symptoms of hip inflammation. In a sixteen year old girl, investigation by routine radiographs and a bone scan suggested a focus of inflammation with a nidus and sclerosis of the acetabulum and overgrowth of the head and neck of the femur. Removal of the lesion by an anterior approach with dislocation of the hip gave excellent results when seen after three years with a normal gait and normal hip motion.

“…An osteoid osteoma of the acetabulum is rare (0.5%) [7, 14] and difficult to diagnose. In recent literature, we found six case reports of arthroscopic removal of an osteoid osteoma of the acetabulum [1, 4, 8, 9].…”

“…The acetabulum is an uncommon but painful location often associated with children [29]. There have been numerous reported cases of OO in the acetabulum [4,9,18,20,21,28,29,36,40,41,44,48,49,52,55,56,67]. Juxtaarticular and intraarticular localizations frequently are associated with a delayed diagnosis, as seen in our patient [24].…”

“…Osteoid osteomas located within the articular capsule are rare and often difficult to detect. [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43] Any joint may be involved, but the most vexing diagnostic problems involve the elbow, hip, [44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53] and ankle joints. Associated symptoms are nonspecific and similar to other common joint disorders.…”

“…Femoral neck lesions have been excised through the Smith-Petersen approach. 14 Acetabular lesions have been exposed anteriorly, with or without dislocation of the femoral head, 47,48,53 or with the Ludloff approach. 45 Medial acetabular tumors have been reached via an extended iliofemoral approach with osteotomy of the anterior superior iliac spine and reflection of the iliacus muscle 46 ; lateral locations have been treated with detachment of the greater trochanter.…”
