Osteoid osteoma of the lumbar spine. A case report.

The authors report the case of a patient aged 10 years with late diagnosis of osteoid osteoma localized in the right pedicle of L1 due to a paucisymptomatic and aspecific clinical onset, characterized only by the occurrence of left-convex wide-range scoliosis that was completely solved after surgical excision of the neoformation.
