We present the clinical case of a 14-year-old female patient complaining of omalgia. A focus of osteoid osteoma located in the acromion was diagnosed. The lesion was removed using the arthroscopic technique, and the symptoms subsided completely. We also present a review of published papers regarding unusual locations of osteoid osteoma.
