Abstract:
A method for localization of the nidus of osteoid osteomas using CT-controlled needle placement and subperiosteal marking with methylene blue is demonstrated. Our clinical experience in 13 patients is reported. This method allows proper intraoperative localization of the nidus of osteoid osteomas without problems. Thus, osseous resection can be reduced and additional stabilization by internal fixation or defect filling by bone graft are not necessary.
