Osteoblastoma is a relatively rare, benign, bone-forming tumor, commonly observed in the second and third decades of life. Spine and the long tubular bones are the most common sites of involvement. Osteoblastoma is infrequently seen in other sites, including the bones of hand and foot. A rare case of a 35-year-old man that presented an osteoblastoma of the cuboid bone is reported. The patient was treated with surgical resection and grafting. After the intervention, the patient recovered with no clinical and radiological evidence of recurrence after one year of follow-up. Several cases of osteoblastoma-like variant of osteosarcoma of the cuboid have been previously reported, but, to our knowledge, this is the first case of conventional and isolated osteoblastoma involving the cuboid bone reported in the literature.
骨母细胞瘤是一种相对罕见的良性成骨性肿瘤，常见于生命的第二个和第三个十年。脊柱和长管状骨是最常见的受累部位。骨母细胞瘤在其他部位很少见，包括手和脚的骨骼。本文报道了一例罕见的35岁男性骰骨骨母细胞瘤病例。该患者接受了手术切除和植骨治疗。干预后，患者恢复良好，随访一年后无临床和影像学复发证据。此前已有几例骰骨肉瘤骨母细胞瘤样变体的病例报道，但据我们所知，这是文献中首次报道的累及骰骨的传统孤立性骨母细胞瘤病例。
