Abstract

Case:Intra-articular osteoid osteoma (IAOO) is a relatively rare entity and can pose a therapeutic challenge due to proximity to the cartilage surface. We present 2 cases of subchondral osteoid osteomata within the distal femur treated with excision and osteochondral grafting of the resultant defect.Conclusions:Subchondral IAOO can pose a therapeutic challenge. Our patients had an effective pain relief and return to activities with this treatment strategy.
