Perhaps the most challenging aspect of these tumors is separating the epithelioid (aggressive) osteoblastoma from osteoblastoma-like osteosarcoma.
The differential diagnosis includes fibrous dysplasia, osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma, cementoblastoma, periapical or focal cementoosseous dysplasia, juvenile COF, chronic osteomyelitis, Garre's osteomyelitis, and psammomatoid ossifying fibroma.
Reported tumors include chondroblastoma, histiocytosis, giant cell tumor, simple bone cyst, brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism, hemangioma, osteochondroma, lipoma, and osteoblastoma.
