Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Background: Osteoid osteomas are one of the most common bone tumors. Although benign, they can cause significant pain and distress to the afflicted patient. The main goal of treatment is to relieve pain. More recently, microwave ablation has gained popularity. The aim is to report a case and the place of computed tomography (CT) guided percutaneous microwave thermo-ablation in osteoid osteoma management. Case Report: A case of osteoid osteoma of the iliac bone managed by CT-guided percutaneous microwave thermo-ablation with good results. Conclusion: treating osteoid osteomas with percutaneous microwave thermo-ablation is a safe and effective technique. The disappearance of pain is the first parameter used to define whether the treatment is effective.
