Osteosarcoma more frequently occurs in children and adolescents, at the position of knee-joint and proximal humerus [1] (Figure 1). It is rare and merely 3.8% occurring in the distal tibia [2]. This picture was taken from a 17 years old girl, without trauma, feeling right ankle-joint uncomfortable for one month. More attention should be paid to young patients with continuous ankle uncomfortable for long time, particularly for those without sprain; X-ray examination is essential and advisable.
