Osteoid osteoma

Recently, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT)-guided surgeries have been developed for bone and soft tissue tumors. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of CBCT-guided curettage for osteoid osteoma. Our study population included 13 patients who underwent primary curettage for osteoid osteoma using intraoperative CBCT in a hybrid operating room between April 2019 and November 2022. We collected the following data: sex, age, follow-up period, symptom onset to time of surgery, tumor size and location, length of skin incision, operating time, radiation dose, recurrence, postoperative complications, and visual analog scale for pain during the last follow-up...

Osteoid osteoma is the most common benign osteogenic bone neoplasm. Osteoid osteomas are typically located in the metaphysis and diaphysis of long bones, especially the tibia and femur. However, less common sites of the skeleton can be affected as well, including carpal bones. Among carpal bones, the scaphoid and the capitate are the most affected. Osteoid osteoma of the trapezium is an extremely rare entity, with only seven cases reported in recent literature. We present a case of a 29-year-old male with persistent left wrist pain who was diagnosed with an osteoid osteoma of the trapezium bone...

OBJECTIVE: Visfatin is currently a cytokine that is extensively researched in the field of bone diseases. In this prospective study, we aimed to investigate the potential of serum visfatin levels as a biomarker for the diagnosis of osteoid osteoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study included a cohort of 20 patients diagnosed with osteoid osteoma (Group 1) and 30 healthy individuals (Group 2). The age, gender, cyst sizes, and visfatin values of all participants were documented and analyzed...

Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a common benign tumor that tends to affect children and young adults. Patients typically present with nocturnal pain that is relieved with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and a unique round or oval radiolucent area with surrounding sclerotic bone on X-ray. The cortex of the diaphysis or metaphysis of long bones is the usual anatomical location, with only 4% of cases localizing to the foot and ankle. Treatment options include medical management, surgical excision, and less invasive techniques such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA)...

The growing spine differs from the adult spine in several ways. Although tumors and infections cause only a small percentage of pediatric back pain incidences, delayed proper diagnosis and treatment may be disastrous. Benign lesions, such as osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma, and aneurysmal bone cyst in the spine, are predominant during the first two decades of life, whereas malignant bony spinal tumors are rare. In the pediatric population, malignant spine tumors include osteosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, lymphoma, and metastatic neuroblastoma...

BACKGROUND: The use of intraoperative CT navigation to manage osteoid osteoma is not common. We report our experience managing osteoid osteoma in the appendicular skeleton using an intraoperative AIRO CT navigation system. MATERIALS & METHODS: Between May 2013 and December 2022, 59 patients underwent Navigation-assisted excision of osteoid osteoma in the appendicular skeleton. Our primary study outcome was to assess for recurrence of the tumour with recurrence of symptoms...

Osteoid osteomas (OOs) are non-malignant primary bone abnormalities marked by a central nidus surrounded by reactive sclerosis. They typically manifest as aggravated nocturnal pain that responds to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These growths are most frequently found within the intracortical bone and the diaphysis of elongated bones. Within the realm of uncommon conditions, intra-articular OOs (IAOOs) exhibit distinctive presentations, often leading to postponed or inaccurate diagnoses. We present a patient with OO at the distal femur, accessible through the knee joint, which was intraoperatively identified and localized using a needle pricking technique and treated by arthrotomy and mosaicplasty...

An osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign bone neoplasm, characterized by significant nocturnal pain that usually responds to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. It occurs most commonly in the lower extremities and vertebrae. Here, we present a case of carcinoma prostate, who was referred to our department for 68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT scan, and we incidentally found out PSMA-avid OO involving frontal bone of skull, which is a rare finding. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case in which high PSMA uptake is found in the OO, suggesting a possible PSMA expression related to osteoblastic activity...

PURPOSE:  To assess diagnostic delay in patients with osteoid osteoma and to analyze influencing factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS:  All patients treated for osteoid osteoma at our tertiary referral center between December 1997 and February 2021 were retrospectively identified (n = 302). The diagnosis was verified by an expert panel of radiologists and orthopedic surgeons. The exclusion criteria were post-interventional recurrence, missing data on symptom onset, and lack of pretherapeutic CT images...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate short-term effectiveness and clinical application advantages of orthopedic robot-assisted resection for osteoid osteoma compared with traditional open surgery. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 48 osteoid osteoma patients who met the selection criteria between July 2022 and April 2023. Among them, 23 patients underwent orthopedic robot-assisted resection (robot-assisted surgery group), and 25 patients received traditional open surgery (traditional surgery group)...

The surgical treatment for osteoid osteoma (OO) in the upper extremity is challenging due to the difficulty in locating the lesion and the crowding of sensitive structures within the anatomy. This study aimed to describe the outcomes of navigated minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation and those of navigated mini open-intralesional curettage in treating these lesions. Nineteen consecutive patients with OO in the upper limb who underwent navigated surgery were included. The average QuickDASH and Numeric Pain Rating Scale improved from 62...

BACKGROUND: Many patients suffer from abdominal and thoracic pain syndromes secondary to numerous underlying etiologies. Chronic abdominal and thoracic pain can be difficult to treat and often refractory to conservative management. In this systematic literature review, we evaluate the current literature to assess radiofrequency ablation's (RFA) efficacy for treating these debilitating chronic pain conditions in the thoracic and abdominal regions. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to determine the pain relief efficacy of RFA on chronic thoracic and chronic abdominal disease states...

BACKGROUND: Percutaneous CT-guided cryoablation is an emerging technique for treating bone tumors. However, experience with using this procedure for osteoid osteomas in pediatric patients remains limited. Our study aims to assess its technical feasibility, clinical efficacy, and safety in children treated under conscious anesthesia. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study of consecutive pediatric patients who underwent CT-guided percutaneous cryoablation for osteoid osteomas at our institution between September 2017 and March 2021...

We report a case of an osteoid osteoma at the scapular glenoid that was treated with cryoablation. The patient presented with shoulder pain with subsequent CT and MRI imaging findings suspicious for an osteoid osteoma. The patient complained of persistent pain despite medical treatment and was referred to interventional radiology for consideration of ablation. CT-guided biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of osteoid osteoma and the patient underwent cryoablation of the lesion in the same session. The patient reported a substantial relief in her pain at a follow-up 4 weeks after the procedure...

This case report focuses on a 15-year-old competitive-level high school basketball player who experienced chronic low back pain. Diagnostic imaging revealed osteoid osteoma in the L5 posterior element, causing osteosclerotic deformity of the left lamina and more inferior facet. To return him to the condition of sports activity, less invasive surgery of microscopic tumor resection with autologous bone grafting was planned instead of CT-guided ablation, which can cause thermal injury to nearby tissues...

PURPOSE: (1) To determine the effect of concomitant IKP (ipsilateral knee pain) on short-term outcomes after hip arthroscopic treatment of FAIS (femoroacetabular impingement syndrome), and (2) to determine whether IKP would improve with surgery. METHODS: Data between September 2021 and May 2022 was reviewed. Patients diagnosed with FAIS and underwent hip arthroscopy with minimum of 1-year follow-up were included. Exclusion criteria were prior ipsilateral hip or knee surgery, hip Tönnis grade > 1, knee Kellgren-Lawrence grade > 2, hip conditions (avascular necrosis, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, pigmented villonodular synovitis, osteoid osteoma, synovial chondromatosis and developmental dysplasia of the hip), and spine diseases...

AIM: CT-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is among the thermal ablative procedures and provides great benefits with a minimally invasive procedure. In this prospective study, we aimed to reveal the significance of a multidisciplinary method in reducing the recurrence and complications in osteoid osteoma patients with CT-guided RFA performed by a team of experts in the field. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of consecutive 40 patients with osteoid osteoma were prospectively evaluated and treated with CT-guided RFA...
