“…To the best our knowledge, there are yet to be any studies on the use of cryoablation in establishing an ONFH animal model. The present study used an argon-based system, as discussed in a number of previous studies (12–15), to establish an ONFH animal model. Under the guidance of MRI, the probes can be maintained in the correct position in every femoral head.…”

The aim of the present study was to establish a novel animal model of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided argon-helium cryotherapy system. A total of 48 rabbits were used to generate the ONFH models. In group I, the left femoral head of the rabbits received two cycles of argon-helium freezing-thawing under MRI guidance, while in group II, the right femoral head of each rabbit received only one cycle of argon-helium freezing-thawing. X-ray and histological examinations were performed. The percentages of lacunae in the femoral heads of group I at weeks 4, 8 and 12 following surgery (49.75±3.17, 62.06±4.12 and 48.25±2.76%, respectively) were higher than those in group II (39.13±4.48, 50.69±3.84 and 37.50±3.86%, respectively). In addition, the percentage of empty lacunae in group I was 62.06% at week 8 following surgery. Therefore, an animal model of ONFH was successfully established using an argon-helium cryotherapy system. The percentage of empty lacunae in group I was higher than that in group II at weeks 4, 8 and 12 after surgery.

“…Cryoablation involving rapidly freezing temperatures within the target tissues, followed by rapid active thawing leading to cellular death through immediate and delayed mechanisms, has also been described. [23][24][25] Arthroscopic excision has also been found to have excellent functional results when used for intraarticular hip lesions.…”

Hip pain in the pediatric population can be a challenging presenting complaint to assess. An extensive differential list, including the possibility of infection, transient conditions, and malignancy, results in numerous questions that can render diagnosis difficult. As clinicians, it is imperative that we have the ability to recognize, properly diagnose, and possibly treat the multitude of potential pediatric hip disorders. Here the authors present the incidence, characteristics, and treatment of various benign tumors and tumor-like conditions of the pediatric hip.

“…12 Cryoablation is growing momentum as a method to treat benign and malignant musculoskeletal neoplasms. Currently only used in selective cases, several trials demonstrated safety and efficacy in the treatment of OO, [14][15][16] an entity usually treated with RFA. The most common complications described with cryoablation are damage to skin, neural injury, muscle injury, pathologic fracture, and tumor lysis.…”

Percutaneous ablation of benign musculoskeletal tumors in children has become an area of significant clinical growth over the last decade. With growing research interest, the technologies available and techniques used are becoming increasingly safe and effective. We review some of the more common ablation technologies and their utility in several common benign bone and soft tissue tumors that occur in children and young adults.

CT-guided percutaneous cryoablation of osteoid osteoma in children: an initial study

Abstract: Percutaneous cryoablation is safe and effective for the treatment of osteoid osteomas in children. Notably, this procedure can be accomplished without general anesthesia.
