The issues of X-ray diagnostics of osteoblastoclastomas have been repeatedly discussed in the literature. The most characteristic radiological symptoms of this one of the most frequent bone tumors are described in detail [i2, 4]. Our long-term observations show that radiologists experience differential diagnostic difficulties in interpreting radiographs of patients with osteoblastoclastoma. The conclusion about the presence of osteoblastoclastoma is often erroneous. This prompted us to focus on the issues of differential diagnosis of osteoblastoclastomas.
