title: Osteoid osteoma of the scapular neck: a case report.
abstract: Osteoid osteoma localised in the scapula are very rare. We report the case of an 11-year-old girl, who presented with an osteoid osteoma at the neck of the glenoid. This was excised en bloc after being located accurately by computed tomography. This case report demonstrates the difficulty in the approach to the excision of this unusually located lesion.
