Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are rare, benign, yet locally aggressive lesions that contain blood-filled channels that rarely occur in the thoracic spine of adults. The literature on the treatment of spinal ABCs is sparse, but the consensus is to achieve gross-total resection (GTR) due to these lesions being locally aggressive and to prevent recurrence.
Observations: This report describes a 35-year-old female admitted with back pain and right T5 dermatome radiculopathy without any inciting events.

Seventeen cases of epithelioid osteoblastoma were reviewed. The tumors most commonly arose from the vertebrae (7 cases), followed by the mandible (3), sacrum (2), bones of the foot (2), and femur, rib, and scapula (1 each). Patients' ages ranged from 5 to 33 years.

Osteoblastoma accounts for approximately 1% of all primary bone tumors. We report F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F18-FDG PET/CT) findings of an osteoblastoma in the rib of a 20-month-old girl child, who had fever with pain in the right shoulder for 4 months. This lesion was initially judged as a malignant bone tumor but a biopsy revealed it to be an osteoblastoma.

We present a case of rib osteoblastoma in a patient with NK/T cell lymphoma. Osteoblastoma was incidentally found in a 63-year-old man in the axillary segment of the fifth rib and was misdiagnosed as lymphomatous involvement on staging 18F-FDG PET/CT. The radiological features in the CT component of PET/CT were atypical.

Osteoid osteoma is a benign osteoblastic bone lesion, characterized by nocturnal pain alleviated by salicylates or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This tumor distinctly affects the long bones, typically the femur or tibia and is rarely located in the ribs. Usually, this tumor is usually diagnosed by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, but F-18 fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomographic (FDG-PET)/computed tomography is usually negative and is not used for diagnosis.
