Abstract:
In most cases, osteoid osteomas can be removed through a percutaneous approach. The authors report their experience of percutaneous removal of osteoid osteomas under CT guidance. The literature on percutaneous treatments of osteoid osteomas is reviewed. The respective advantages of percutaneous removal and percutaneous destruction of the nidus using thermocoagulation or interstitial laser photocoagulation are discussed.
