Percutaneous thermoablation of osteoid osteoma – a case study
Journal Title: Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja - Year 2012, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
Osteoid osteoma has been traditionally treated by curettage and en bloc resection. These methods are now being replaced by low-invasive techniques. We present the description of a percutaneous thermoablation of a femoral neck osteoid osteoma performed under CT guidance in a 22-year-old female patient.
