Osteoid Osteoma of the Calcaneus: Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation

Case Report: Osteoid Osteoma of the Acetabulum Treated With Arthroscopy-assisted Radiofrequency Ablation

“…In addition, the healing rate is 76% to 100% [14,53], with a major complication rate of 0% to 5% [2,6,45]. However, using CT-guided RFA, there are reports of articular cartilage damage in weightbearing joints; one patient experienced articular cartilage damage to the talus [47], and another had damage to the acetabulum [9]. Direct observation and femoral head distraction during the arthroscopy may decrease the risk of cartilaginous thermal damage.…”

Cortical Osteoid Osteomas of the Calcaneus Managed by En Bloc Resection and Autogenous Iliac Bone Grafting

“…Those will be differentiated according to their special histories, radiological characters and histopathological examinations. There are different modalities for the treatment of osteoid osteomas including medical treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory [8,9], surgical treatment including wide en bloc resection and unroofing with excision [9][10][11], also the minimally invasive surgical techniques including many surgical options as radionuclide-guided excision [12][13][14][15], CT-guided percutaneous excision [16,17], percutaneous laser photocoagulation [18,19], percutaneous radiofrequency coagulation [20,21] and computer-assisted surgery [22,23]. As regarding the medical treatment there were studies about the success of this modality within a period varying from 3 to 5 years with continuous use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory [8,9].…”

“…There were several reports that discussed the minimally invasive surgical techniques which included radionuclideguided excision, CT-guided percutaneous excision, percutaneous laser photocoagulation, percutaneous radiofrequency coagulation, and computer-assisted surgery. The success rates could be approximately 100% [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. The disadvantages include incomplete resection, persistence of symptoms, recurrence and inability to examine the lesion by histopathological examination [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23].…”

Ostéome ostéoïde de l’os naviculaire tarsien: à propos d’un cas et revue de la littérature

“…Au niveau du nidus a été observée une libération importante de prostaglandine responsable de la douleur, expliquant ainsi la régression de cette douleur à l'administration de l'aspirine. Cette libération de prostaglandine au voisinage articulaire entraîne une inflammation synoviale qui se traduit cliniquement par un tableau d'arthrite (cela donne un tableau particulier à l'ostéome ostéoïde juxtaarticulaire par rapport aux localisations diaphysaires) [5,[10][11][12]. C'est le diagnostic qui a été soulevé initialement chez notre patient et qui nous a amenés à effectuer une biopsie : aspect de synovite.…”

“…Cette douleur se caractérise par sa rétrocession à l'administration d'aspirine ou d'AINS. En fait, cette sémiologie se voit plus dans les localisations diaphysaires alors que les localisations juxta-articulaires donnent une symptomatologie apparentée à une « arthrite » moins sensible à l'aspirine [5,[10][11][12]17]. C'était le cas de notre patient.…”
