Abstract
Cancellous osteoid osteoma of the talus near the subtalar joint is rare, and the treatment is very challenging. We present the first case of arthroscopic excision of juxtaarticular cancellous osteoid osteoma in the talar neck near the subtalar joint. After confirming the nidus of the osteoid osteoma with computer tomography, the lesion was completely removed with a motorized bur under arthroscopy, and the patient’s pain disappeared immediately after surgery. This case report demonstrates that a cancellous osteoid osteoma in the talar neck near the subtalar joint can be treated by arthroscopic excision and good results could be obtained.
Level of evidence IV.
