Subungual exostoses and hyperostoses of the great toenail are a differential diagnosis of nail tumors. We present 3 cases of subungual exostosis/hyperostosis with secondary nail dystrophy: a 36- and a 37-year-old woman as well as an 8-year-old boy. Two of the 3 patients suffered from pain. The 2 female patients presented with the classic dorsolateral firm protrusion, while the child presented with bilateral nail dystrophy with lateral wall hypertrophy. In this later case, a bony ridge was identified, which is an unusual subungual, nonprotruding type of exostosis. The hypertrophic lateral walls were removed by the Vandenbos technique. In the 2 former cases, complete excision of the bony lesions was performed with a proximal block. Healing by second intention was uneventful.

“…6 Commonly, the OO presents with night pain in the affected region, which is relieved by antiinfl ammatory drugs. 2,7 In the region of the hand, the OO could have atypical symptoms, as in our case. Unusual clinical signs and locations, especially at the hand, can easily result in misdiagnosis or delay in the diagnosis.…”

“…In some cases the OO could simulate osteomyelitis, Brodie's abscess, tuberculosis, tenosynovitis and benign or malignant tumour. 7,8 In our case the radiographic fi ndings were suspicious for osteomyelitis or Ewing sarcoma. After performance of MRI with typical characteristics of ОО, revealing the nidus and surrounding bone sclerosis, the diagnosis of ОО of the middle fi nger was established.…”

Folia Med (Plovdiv) 2018;60(2): 314-7.Osteoid osteoma is a rare occurrence in the hand, especially in children. We report here a rare case of a 12-year-old boy complaining of growing painful swelling of the middle phalanx of the third fi nger that had started 3 months earlier and had not responded to anti-infl ammatory medication. Based on the clinical fi ndings and plain radiographs, osteomyelitis or Ewing's sarcoma was suspected. However, MRI revealed the typical characteristics of osteoid osteoma. The lesion was excised, and the histological examination confi rmed the diagnosis. We make a brief review of the literature concerning this uncommon localization and discuss the diff erential diagnosis and treatment modalities.

“…Pain in the great toe of the foot is attributed to a wide variety of diseases, with the commonest being trauma, malalignment and degenerative disease, as well as less common causes such as infections of the bone (osteomyelitis or cellulitis) and tumours, both benign and malignant. Differential diagnosis should take into account conditions like osteomyelitis due to pseudomonas (mostly in diabetics), epidermoid inclusion cysts, chondrosarcoma, osteoblastoma, subungual squamous cell carcinoma, intracortical osteosarcoma and osteoid osteoma [ 21 ]. Diagnosis is usually delayed (mean 16 moths after onset of symptoms with a range of 8-36 months), and this was the case in our patient, where the diagnosis was made at 18 months after the onset of symptoms.…”

Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumour that mostly affects males in the second and third decade of their life. The lesion mainly occurs in long bones, usually in the femur and tibia, causing severe localized pain that is worse at night and responds to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Diagnosis is usually made on the basis of history and radiographic findings. However, in more unusual locations as the hand and foot, diagnostic issues can arise. Treatment often includes complete removal of the tumor. We present a 22 year old male with osteoid osteoma involving the distal phalanx of the hallux. To our knowledge very few cases of great toe osteoid osteoma have been reported in the literature.
