Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic oncology
  • Interventional radiology
  • Minimally invasive procedures

Background:

  • Bone tumors, both benign and malignant (including metastases), frequently affect the knee region.
  • Historically, surgery was the primary treatment, often involving significant morbidity.
  • Image-guided percutaneous treatments have emerged as effective alternatives over recent decades.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an interdisciplinary overview of image-guided percutaneous interventions for bone tumors around the knee.
  • To discuss the expanding clinical indications for these minimally invasive techniques.
  • To highlight challenges and future directions in treating bone tumors in this specific anatomical area.

Main Methods:

  • Review of image-guided percutaneous interventions for bone tumors around the knee.
  • Discussion of techniques including thermal ablation, intralesional injections, and bone consolidation.
  • Emphasis on interventional oncology principles.

Main Results:

  • Percutaneous treatments are effective for osteoid osteoma and palliation of bone metastases.
  • Indications have expanded to include other painful benign bone tumors.
  • Selected cases of bone metastases and sarcoma recurrence can be treated with curative intent percutaneously.

Conclusions:

  • Image-guided percutaneous interventions represent a less invasive and less morbid approach to managing bone tumors around the knee.
  • These techniques offer palliative and, in select cases, curative treatment options.
  • Continued research and development are crucial for addressing the challenges specific to this region.
