A Case Of Osteoblastoma
Abstract
29 years old woman patient whose main complaint was pain on the left shoulder and limitation of arm movoment is discussed on these paper. The lesion in the proximal humerus had been curetted before that and it was diagnosed as hemangioma. Proximal humerus resection was performed because of recurrences. The diagnoses was settled
up as osteoblastoma. Because of some unusual apearence of this case (such as the patient age, the localisation of lesion, etc.) we considered .it an interesting case. The case is discussed with literatures.
