Abstract

This chapter discusses other benign and miscellaneous bone tumor. Osteoma is a benign, slowly growing tumor occurring mainly in the membranous bones of the skull and the face. Osteomas can be broadly classified as skull (sinonasal osteomas) and long-bone osteomas (parosteal osteoma). Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone-forming skeletal neoplasm first described by Bergstrand in 1930. In 1935, Jaffe gave an accurate description of this entity and also coined the term “osteoid osteoma”. An osteoblastoma (osteogenic fibroma of bone) is a vascular, benign, bone-forming skeletal neoplasm, which histologically resembles the nidus of an osteoid osteoma, but usually, lacks reactive sclerosis. Adamantinoma is a rare, low-grade malignant, primary bone tumor of the skeleton of undetermined histogenesis. This chapter also discusses the clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, and treatment of benign tumors.
