Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the long-term efficacy of CT-guided microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of osteoid osteoma. Secondary objectives were to assess early outcome and side-effects of MWA.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-eight consecutive patients (18 men, 10 women) with a median age of 19.5 years (IQR: 16, 25.5) with a total of 28 non-spinal osteoid osteoma treated by CT-guided MWA were retrospectively included. The ablations were performed with a median power and duration of 60 Watt and 1 min 30 s, respectively. Pain referred to osteoid osteoma was assessed at predefined time points using a 0-10 numeric rating scale. At one month, contrast-enhanced follow-up MRI was performed to evaluate the nidus vascularization and the volume of necrosis induced by MWA. Clinical success was defined by the absence of osteoid osteoma-related pain, and technical success was defined by the presence of necrosis of the nidus on the one-month post-MWA MRI.
Results: Long term success rate was 93% (26/28) after a follow-up of 55.5 months (IQR: 25.75, 74.5) and technical success rate was 96 % (25/26). One late failure was observed after a patient had been declared cured at one month but the formal proof of a late recurrence of osteoid osteoma could not be brought. Three minor complications were reported including mild reversible superficial radial nerve injury with a skin burn (grade 2) in one patient and moderate skin burn only in two patients.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that CT-guided MWA is an effective option for a minimally-invasive treatment of osteoid osteoma with a low rate of complication and no late recurrence.

Osteoid osteoma (OO), a benign bone-forming tumor estimated to account for 3% of all primary bone tumors, rarely occurs in the finger. This case report presents an unusual instance of osteoid osteoma in the finger of a 15-year-old male patient. The lesion was discovered following an initial patient visit for left middle finger pain and swelling for one year without any identifiable injuries.

Background And Aim: Osteoid osteoma (Oo) and osteoblastoma (Ob) are rare primary bone tumors with a higher prevalence in the second decade of life. Treatment can be conservative, but in cases of spinal location, resective surgery is of great importance but may be challenging.
Material And Methods: We report four pediatric cases of Oo and Ob managed in our unit, with different locations at the level of the cervical spine.

Objectives: Limping is a frequent reason for visits to emergency departments. The causes of limping in children are various, ranging from benign musculoskeletal problems to serious etiologies, such as malignancy and infections.
Methods: In this recent cross-sectional study, we evaluated the causes of limps in children referred to the pediatric rheumatology ward in northeast Iran.

Introduction: Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign intra-osseous lesion. The lesion is painful and usually diagnosed by x-ray, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). When the lesion is juxta-articular or intra-capsular, the symptoms may present differently than the typical OO lesion and make diagnosis more challenging.

Osteoid Osteoma (OO) is a common primary bone tumor that often presents with night pain in younger orthopedic patients. Although typically extra-articular, intra-articular presentations may be difficult to diagnose. While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides excellent detailed imaging of the articular surface, it has been reported to lead to occasional misdiagnosis given limitations in spatial resolution, particularly for smaller lesions.
