Osteoid Osteoma in the Sacrum: A Case Report / 대한척추외과학회지

ABSTRACT

Osteoid osteomas occur most commonly in the lumbar spine. However, they rarely occur in the sacrum, and there is no report of such a case in Korea. We report a case of osteoid osteoma in the sacrum in a 15-year-old boy who was treated by a surgical excision with a satisfactory outcome. Although unusual, an osteoid osteoma should be considered when making a differential diagnosis of benign tumors in the sacral areas.
