Osteoblastoma is a rare and benign osteoid producing primary bone tumor that affect mainly the long bones. Spine account for thirty-six percent of these tumor. The mean age of presentation was 20 years, with a range of 6 months to 75 years. We report about a 12-year-old male child who presented with neck pain. Radiology revealed C2 osteoblatoma.
