Abstract
Endostoma of bone (bone island) is a rare lesion and has been described in the spinous process in only one previous publication. Although these lesions are benign, they have a potential for enlargement. Radiography cannot completely differentiate these lesions from more aggressive processes, and removal of the lesion should be considered.
