Abstract

Abstract: Intra-articular osteoid osteoma may simulate arthritis, due to the intra-articular presence of prostaglandin, which leads to synovitis, joint effusion, pain, and high local temperature. Also, intra-articular osteoid osteoma may present with minimum or no cortical thickening. Therefore, a high suspicion is needed for a correct and early diagnosis. Perfusion weighted imaging, such as dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging, can aid in the localization of the tumor nidus, seen as an early arterial-phase focal enhancement after the gadolinium injection, with fast washout, as a result of its hypervascularity.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflict of interest.<br /> (Copyright © 2022 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
