A 15 year old black boy presented with a seven-month history of apparent post traumatic foot pain. Radiologic workup including bone scan, tomograms, and CT scan showed osteoid osteoma, which was treated by surgical excision. This treatment resulted in complete pain relief and return to full activities.
