Osteoblastoma of Talus: A Diagnostic Dilemma

Cureus. 2020 Dec 2;12(12):e11838. doi: 10.7759/cureus.11838.

Abstract

The critical biomechanical importance of talus and nonspecific clinical features of talus lesion warrants a meticulous diagnostic work-up for specific management, particularly when the talus lesion is associated with concomitant soft tissue and joint abnormalities. We present a rare case of osteoblastoma of talus with concomitant tenosynovitis of tibialis anterior, ankle joint effusion, varicose vein and moderate distal arterial stenosis.

Keywords: diagnosis; multidisciplinary approach; osteoblastoma; talus.
