Abstract: 
In this article we represent an 18-year-old female with progressive back pain and neurologic symptoms due to a large heterogenous mass centered in posterior elements of lower thoracic vertebrae with prominent soft tissue extension into paravertebral and epidural space and subsequent central cord compression along with severe adjacent inflammatory changes.
Considering patient age, lesion location and characteristics, aggressive Osteoblastoma, eosinophilic granuloma, and with lower probability of Ewing sarcoma were included in the differential list, which aggressive Osteoblastoma was confirmed after pathologic examination.
