Abstract
Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor that commonly arises from the metaphyseal and diaphyseal regions of long bones. Pain is often the first symptom, and it can mimic many diseases. Herein, we report a 36-year-old male patient who presented with complaints of lower back pain radiating to the right extremity for a year. In the patient's history, physical therapy, platelet-rich plasma, pregabalin, and duloxetine were used, with the only benefit from indomethacin. An X-ray of the femur was requested, and the diagnosis of osteoid osteoma was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. Osteoid osteoma should be kept in mind as a differential diagnosis of persistent pain despite treatment.
