“…Most cavities were filled up with homologous bone chips after the curettage. Several studies have revealed that this leads to a complete consolidation and excellent functional results [18,19]. Thermal damage to the growth plate or articular cartilage was not seen in our group of patients.…”

“…Several adjuvant therapies have been described, such as phenol cauterization and bone cement [6][7][8][9] still the recurrence rate is reason for concern [6,9]. Therefore, cryosurgery was started as an adjuvant in our hospital in 1989 and is still the standard treatment of benign and low-grade malignant bone tumors [10,12,17,18].…”

“…Nevertheless, six post-operative fractures took place after surgery with the prophylactic plating technique. From our studies in goats on the recovery of bone strength after cryosurgery we know that the strength of bone decreases by 30% 8 weeks after surgery and it takes at least 26 weeks for the bone to regain its normal strength [23].…”

“…We observed that the regaining of the mechanical strength of bone after cryosurgery in goats reflects the same time period as in human bone [24]. Revascularization of biological grafts is reduced due to the necrosis following cryosurgery and consequently supplies less stability in the first post-operative months [23,25]. Intra-operative care can make a difference in complication incidence by adjusting the outline of the cortical window or the method of osteosynthesis [23].…”
