Abstract
Osteoid osteoma (OO), a small bone tumor relatively common in young subjects, frequently involves the hip. In addition to typical findings, we emphasize unsuspected clinical and imaging features including painless OO causing limping gait, non-visibility of totally mineralized nidus, absence of hyperostosis or adjacent edema, and recurrence at distance from the initial location. We also discuss the option of medical treatment for some cases of deep hip locations.
