BACKGROUND
Facial nerve weakness is most commonly due to Bell's palsy or cerebrovascular accidents. Rarely, middle ear tumor presents with facial nerve dysfunction.
METHODS
We report a very unusual case of middle ear osteoma in a 49-year-old Caucasian woman causing progressive facial nerve deficit.
Uncommonly affecting the carpus, osteoid osteoma, a benign bone lesion, will involve the hand in 10% of cases. With negative initial radiographs and persistent tenderness in a 15-year-old boy after a fall, a wrist magnetic resonance imaging revealed extensive hamate edema without a fracture line. He
Osteoid osteomas are benign bone tumors, most commonly located in the femur or tibia. In young children, these tumors can be extremely difficult to diagnose. They commonly present nonspecifically with gait disturbance and pain and characteristically respond well to mild pain relievers. We report two
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Osteoid osteoma is a benign tumor that forms in bone, which accounts for 3% of all primary bone tumors. The classical clinical finding is substantial nocturnal pain and imaging findings. The management of osteoid osteomas include open surgical excision or minimally invasive
BACKGROUND
Intramuscular hemangioma in the periosteal region is rare. Although comprising less than 1% of all hemangiomas, they represent the most common type of intramuscular tumors. When located adjacent to bone, a periosteal reaction can occur. The deep localization of the hemangioma poses the
Background: Intracranial osteoma (ICO), arising from none-osseous tissue and surrounding by brain parenchyma, is extremely rare.
Case presentation: We report an ICO surgical
BACKGROUND
Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of osteoid osteoma has a high technical and clinical success rate. However, there is limited data on its use in the pediatric population, especially in technically challenging locations.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the safety and efficacy of computed

Osteomas of the internal auditory canal are rare lesions, with only 12 reported cases in the world literature. Symptoms are those of eighth nerve compression, and include unilateral hearing loss and vestibular weakness, thus mimicking symptoms of acoustic neuroma. We report a patient with an osteoma
In a 6 1/2-year-old boy and a 9 1/2-year-old girl, spinal root compression was suspected on the basis of muscle wasting and weakness, diminished deep tendon reflexes, and severe pain, all in a radicular distribution. However, extensive and invasive neuroradiologic evaluation failed to demonstrate
An 84-year-old man presented to the emergency department following recurrent falls over several weeks and onset of new left-sided weakness. CT of the brain revealed a large air cavity (pneumatocoele) in the right frontal lobe thought to be secondary to an ethmoidal osteoma communicating through the
Approximately 50-60% of spinal tumors are extradural and depending on the origin and location are classified into tumors of the vertebrae, tumors of the epidural space and primarily extraspinal tumors growing into the spine. Presenting complaints include back pain and weakness as well as myelopathy
Osteoblastoma (OB) is a rare primary benign bone tumor. It generally occurs in the axial skeleton, where it preferentially involves the neural arch. The peak incidence of this neoplasm is in the first two decades of life. Female/male ratio is 2:1. It is important to differentiate OB from osteoid
