Osteoid osteoma of the rib presenting as thoracic outlet syndrome.
[thoracic outlet syndrome]
Osteoid
osteoma
of
the
rib
is
a
rare
condition
mostly
mentioned
in
case
report
studies
as
lesions
involving
posterior
region
of
the
rib
causing
scoliosis
.
This
report
presents
a
22
-
year
-old
man
who
complained
of
neurologic
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
symptoms
.
The
pathologic
study
of
the
resected
mass
of
the
first
rib
confirmed
the
diagnosis
of
osteoid
osteoma
.
This
unique
presentation
of
the
osteoid
osteoma
as
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
suggests
that
this
pathologic
involvement
of
the
ribs
is
not
confined
to
the
symptoms
of
pain
and
scoliosis
.
