Abstract

Osteoid osteoma is a common benign primary bone tumor. Patients frequently present with pain. There are cases reported in various bones in the literature. It is useful to keep in mind the osteoid osteoma in the differential diagnosis of patients with limb pain. The thin section computed tomography will be usefull when we suspect osteoid osteoma. In the literature we have reached three cases of osteoid osteoma related with cuboid bone. We present a case of osteoid osteoma in a 26-year-old patient in cuboid bone due to unusual foot pain.
