Resumo
We report a case of osteoid osteoma in the tibial region in a 23 year old male, whose interest resides in its clinical appearance following a long period without pain and having developed in the same location of a closed tibial fracture that occured some 4 years ago. The diagnosis was performed in addition to the night-time pain experienced, by means of conventional Radiographic study, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic. Its confirmation was carried out by pathological study. Treatment consisted in surgical exeresis of the tumour. Pain disappeared, after exeresis, not existing tumour ral tissue after one year follow-up. Although numerous publications have been made concerning the osteoide osteoma, it seems interesting to publish this particular case, because of the rarity of its occurrence in the same location of the callus of a fracture.
