Radiological Recovery of Osteoid Osteoma after CT Guided Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation.

Objective: To observe the necessity and usefulness of follow-up Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography Imaging (CTI) after RFA of osteoid osteoma.

Study Design: A descriptive study.

Place And Duration Of Study: Department of Radiology, Sisli Etfal Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey, between May 2015 and January 2020.

Prediction of clinical outcomes of single- and double- bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction techniques using magnetic resonance imaging.

Background: The objective of the study is to compare the clinical results of the single-bundle (SB) and double-bundle (DB) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repairing techniques using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Methods: Thirty-eight patients were randomized by block randomization into two different groups of ACL reconstruction: DB (n=19) and SB techniques (n=19). MRI evaluation and clinical examination with modified Cincinnati Knee Rating Score and Lysholm knee scores were performed pre-operatively and at the end of a follow-up period of 36 months.

CT-guided Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation of Osteoid Osteoma with Double Nidi in One Session.

Osteoid osteoma with multiple nidi is a rare condition. The aim of this report is to share a case of an osteoid osteoma with two separate nidi, which underwent radio-frequency ablation (RFA) treatment under CT-guidance for each of the nidi in the same session. A 15-year girl with osteoid osteoma in left tibia was referred to our clinic for percutaneous RFA.

Measurement of iliotibial band diameter in iliotibial band friction syndrome and comparison with an asymptomatic population.

Background: Iliotibial band friction syndrome (ITBFS) is an overuse injury of the lateral aspect of the knee. This syndrome classically affects the active young population.

Purpose: To determine the diameter of the ITB using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients clinically diagnosed with ITBFS, compare the results with asymptomatic patients, and assess the inter-observer agreement between a senior and a junior radiologist with different levels of experience in musculoskeletal imaging.

Patients with ACL graft deficiency showed a higher frequency of knee osteoarthritis compared with patients with intact ACL graft in the medium term.

Aim: To evaluate whether patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft tear who do not undergo revision reconstruction surgery are more likely to exhibit osteoarthritic features than patients with intact ACL graft using MRI.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively evaluated our hospital medical archive for identifying all consecutive patients with ACL graft failure who underwent MRI between January 2015 and January 2019. An equal number of patients with intact ACL graft was selected for the control group.
