Mücərrəd
Osteoblastoma is a rare benign tumor of the bone. A 15-year-old boy presented with severe neck and back pain and was followed up for myofascial pain syndrome for 12 months. There was no neurologic deficit or scoliosis. The X-ray of the patient was normal. MRI revealed local destructive tumorous lesion of the T3-T5 vertebrae. The tumor was resected by a spinal surgeon and histologic examination revealed osteoblastoma. The patient's complaints have been completely resolved and there was no recurrence during the follow-up.
