An intraosseous xanthoma is a very rare condition. It has an aggressive appearance on radiographs mimicking primary or metastatic malignant bone tumors. We report a case of intraosseous xanthoma of the distal radius in a 51-year-old male with no history of hyperlipidaemia. To the best of our knowledge, this condition has not been reported so far in the wrist and forearm region. The lesion was successfully excised and at last follow-up, there were no signs of recurrence and patient has been symptom-free.
