Osteoid osteomas in almost all locations may be treated by percutaneous resection
under CT scan guidance. The authors give their own experience with a series of 30
cases. The different techniques of percutaneous resection reported in the literature
are reviewed. Advantages of the percutaneous resection are compared to those of classical
surgery and other percutaneous techniques such as lesion destruction with thermocoagulation,
photocoagulation, and intralesional injection of alcohol.
