Osteoblastoma-like tumor is a rare condition with limited information on its orthopedic management in the current medical literature. The tumor histologically resembles an osteoblastoma, although the radiographic features are similar to those observed in primary vascular lesions. The treatment in the previously reported cases involved aggressive procedures including amputation, en bloc resection, and chemotherapy because of the uncertainty regarding the biological behavior of the tumor. We present a case of this entity that was successfully treated by a combination therapy including intralesional curettage with adjuvant cryotherapy, in situ and intravenous administration of bisphosphonates and radioablation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
