Osteochondroma, the most frequent benign bone tumor, develops in the metaphysis of long bones including the proximal humerus, tibia, and distal femur. The involvement of talus is found only in a few patients. Here, we present a case of osteochondroma of the talus in a 52‐year‐old woman who presented with ankle pain and edema.
