Abstract
Osteochondroma is the most common benign bone tumor which commonly occurs in the metaphysis of the long bones such as proximal humerus, tibia, and distal femur. It is rarely found in bones of the foot. Although they are benign lesions, when they occur in the foot, they are typically identified earlier than other regions because of the low proliferation of subcutaneous tissue in the region and may cause symptoms. We experienced a rare case of osteochondroma in a 60-year-old male which cause pain and swelling of the fourth toe.
