Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: To report a series of patients with osteoid osteoma treated by radiofrequency ablation in whom no complications or recurrences occurred. METHODS: Over a 13-year period, 32 consecutive patients with osteoid osteoma were treated by radiofrequency ablation in an Australasian teaching centre. RESULTS: All patients had resolution of symptoms with no complication or recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: This series is further evidence for the use of radiofrequency ablation as the primary treatment for osteoid osteoma.
