Multifocal osteoblastoma of the hand

Abstract 

Osteoblastoma is a benign bone tumor with uncertain radiologic and typical histologic pattern that, in most cases, can be diagnosed without any problems. Usually, it is a solitary bone tumor. The case presented is a 9-year-old child with multiple osteoblastomas occurring in multiple bones of the right hand. The child had pain in his right hand for several weeks. On physical examination, no swelling or other symptoms were elicited. All lesions noted radiologically were treated by curettage, and in all the pattern of osteoblastoma was diagnosed.
