Summary
Minimally invasive percutaneous interventions offer safe and effective treatment for painful benign bone tumors, improving patient quality of life. Radiologists play a key role in managing these conditions beyond osteoid osteoma.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Radiology
- Minimally Invasive Surgery
Background:
- Painful benign bone tumors significantly impair quality of life due to skeletal-related events.
- Skeletal-related events include intractable pain, pathologic fractures, and neurological deficits.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review current minimally invasive percutaneous interventions for benign bone tumors (excluding osteoid osteoma).
- To highlight the advancements and radiologist's role in managing these tumors.
Main Methods:
- Review of percutaneous minimally invasive techniques for benign bone tumors.
- Discussion of radiologist's involvement in diagnosis and treatment planning.
Main Results:
- Percutaneous interventions are established as safe, effective, and durable treatments.
- These methods provide definitive cure for painful benign bone tumors.
Conclusions:
- Minimally invasive percutaneous interventions represent a significant advancement in treating benign bone tumors.
- Radiologists are integral to the successful management of patients with these conditions.
