Resection of an Osteoid Osteoma of the Talus by Arthroscopy: About A Case

Abstract

Osteoid osteoma is a benign primary bone tumor. This tumor is relatively commom; it represents 12 % of all benign bone tumors and about 2 to 3 % of all bone tumors. We report in this work a case of osteoid osteoma which underwent arthroscopic resection. This study concerns a 19-year-old patient referred for chronic ankle pain evolving for 6 months.
