Abstract
Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor usually observed in children and adults, generally in the femur or tibia. Pain relief with aspirin is a classical clinical characteristic. Computed tomography is the exploration of choice providing reliable diagnosis. Cure can be achieved with surgical resection. We present an exceptional case of osteoid osteoma located in the patella.
