Abstract:
This review outlines current interventional radiology literature for managing pediatric musculoskeletal conditions-specifically bone cysts, bone tumors, and pain management. With the advancements in regenerative bone grafts, ablative techniques and increased awareness from referring physicians, there has been a gradual shift from open surgical techniques to minimally invasive, image-guided procedures in the management of certain pediatric musculoskeletal conditions.

Musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders involve injuries and conditions affecting the skeletal muscles and associated connective tissues. These disorders can arise from acute biomechanical stresses or chronic overuse and can occur across different age groups. Common injuries include sprains, fractures, and muscular strains, often resulting from...
Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
