[PMID: 38490842 DOI: 10.1016/j.acra.2024.02.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2024] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The aim of the current study was to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of CT-guided microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of osteoid osteomas (OO). MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from 59 consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous CT-MWA for OO treatment were examined in the current retrospective study. The period of this study spanned from January 2021 to May 2023 at a single institution. The study involved an evaluation of clinical and radiological characteristics, procedural data, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores, complication incidences, as well as clinical and technical success rates. Statistical analyses were performed by using the Wilcoxon test with Bonferroni correction, Friedman, Spearman, Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS 59 patients with an average age of 17.31 ± 8.53 years underwent CT-guided MWA for the treatment of OO. The procedure demonstrated a high success rate, with 96.6% of cases achieving both technical and clinical success. However, recurrence was observed in two patients (3.4%) at the three-month follow-up. These cases were successfully managed with a second MWA procedure. The median VAS pain scores reported by the patients was significantly improved post-procedure: from 8.64 ± 1.14 before treatment to 0.63 ± 0.98 in the first month, 0.41 ± 1.02 in the third month, and 0.15 ± 0.45 in the sixth month. Only one patient (1.7%) experienced a minor complication; no major complications were recorded in this study. CONCLUSION CT-guided percutaneous MWA is a minimally invasive and a highly effective and safe approach for the treatment of OO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) combined with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in the treatment of multisegmental (2-3 segments) osteolytic spinal metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study comprised a retrospective analysis of data from 20 patients with multisegmental (2-3 segments) osteolytic spinal metastases who received MWA combined with PVP. The visual analog scale (VAS) score, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score, Quality of Life Questionnaire-Bone Metastases 22 (QLQ-BM22), and local recurrence before and after the operation were measured. The occurrence of complications was observed to evaluate safety. RESULTS All operations were completed successfully with no serious complications. Transient nerve injury occurred in two cases, but recovered after symptomatic treatment. The bone cement leakage rate was 13.9% (6/43). The mean baseline VAS scores were 7.25 ± 0.91 before treatment and 7.25 ± 0.91, 3.70 ± 1.12, 2.70 ± 0.73, 2.40 ± 0.68, 2.25 ± 0.71, and 2.70 ± 0.92 at 1 day, 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment; all values were significantly lower (P < 0.001). The mean baseline ODI score decreased from 56.90 ± 9.74 before treatment to 41.90 ± 7.09, 38.10 ± 7.93, and 38.80 ± 10.59 at 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment, respectively; all values were significantly lower (P < 0.001). The average QLQ-BM22 baseline score decreased from 54.10 ± 5.36 before treatment to 44.65 ± 5.22, 43.05 ± 4.78, 42.30 ± 4.06, and 42.15 ± 5.47 at 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 months after treatment; all values were significantly lower (all P < 0.001). The postoperative survival time of all patients was >6 months. In three patients, four vertebral segments recurred 6 months after operation. CONCLUSION MWA combined with PVP is a safe and effective treatment for multisegmental osteolytic vertebral metastases that can effectively relieve pain, improve spinal function, improve quality of life, and delay tumor progression. However, it is a long operation, necessitating good preoperative preparation and effective intraoperative pain relief measures.

Abstract
Cancer is a devasting disease resulting in millions of deaths worldwide in both humans and companion animals, including dogs. Treatment of cancer is complex and challenging and therefore often multifaceted, as in the case of osteosarcoma (OS) and soft tissue sarcoma (STS). OS predominantly involves the appendicular skeleton and STS commonly develops in the extremities, resulting in treatment challenges due to the need to balance wide-margin resections to achieve local oncological control against the functional outcomes for the patient. To achieve wide tumor resection, invasive limb salvage surgery is often required, and the patient is at risk for numerous complications which can ultimately lead to impaired limb function and mobility. The advent of tumor ablation techniques offers the exciting potential of developing noninvasive or minimally invasive treatment options for extremity tumors. One promising innovative tumor ablation technique with strong potential to serve as a noninvasive limb salvage treatment for extremity tumor patients is histotripsy. Histotripsy is a novel, noninvasive, non-thermal, and non-ionizing focused ultrasound technique which uses controlled acoustic cavitation to mechanically disintegrate tissue with high precision. In this review, we present the ongoing development of histotripsy as a non-surgical alternative for extremity tumors and highlight the value of spontaneously occurring OS and STS in the pet dog as a comparative oncology research model to advance this field of histotripsy research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a novel noninvasive interventional technique for osteoid osteoma (OO). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MRgFUS in the treatment of OO through a systematic review and meta-analysis of pain scores and post-treatment adverse events before and after MRgFUS treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, Web of science, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted to screen the study literature based on inclusion and exclusion criteria to extract and analyze pre- and post-treatment pain score data, success rates (complete pain relief with no recurrence until the last follow-up), recurrence rates, secondary intervention rates, and complications to evaluate the efficacy and/or safety of MRgFUS for OO. RESULTS A total of 113 studies published between 2012 and 2022were collected, resulting in a total sample size of 353 patients. The majority of the studies were prospective and had a follow-up period of 4 weeks or more, and overall, the quality of evidence ranged from low to high. Pain scores at 1 week and 1 month after the merger were 0.62 (9.5% CI:0.28-0.96) and 0.37 (9.5% CI:0.07-0.68), respectively. The success rate of the combination was 92.8% (95% CI: 89.8%-95.7%), the incidence of minor complications (thermal injury at the ablation site) was 0.85%, and no major complications were recorded in any of the included literature. CONCLUSION MRgFUS is an effective procedure that is able to treat pain for patients with OO with satisfying efficacy and safety. PROSPERO No.CRD42023415573.

Abstract
Painful benign bone tumors most commonly affect pediatric patients and young adults. They may be associated with skeletal-related events such as intractable pain, pathologic fracture, neurologic deficit as a consequence of nerve or spinal cord compression, as well as growth disturbance. Consequently, they often result in diminished activity and adversely affect quality of life. There have been substantial recent advances in percutaneous minimally invasive image-guided interventions for treatment of painful benign bone tumors including thermal ablation (radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, microwave ablation, laser photocoagulation, and high-intensity focused US ablation), chemical (alcohol) ablation, cementoplasty, and intralesional injections. The safety, efficacy, and durability of such interventions have been established in the recent literature and as such, the role of musculoskeletal interventional radiologists in the care of patients with benign bone lesions has substantially expanded. The treatment goal of minimally invasive musculoskeletal interventions in patients with benign bone tumors is to achieve definitive cure. The authors detail the most recent advances and available armamentarium in minimally invasive image-guided percutaneous interventions with curative intent for the management of benign bone tumors. © RSNA, 2022.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment for recurrent bone tumors in the extremities still presents a challenge. This study was designed to evaluate the clinical value of microwave ablation in the treatment of recurrent bone tumors. METHODS We present 15 patients who underwent microwave ablation for recurrent bone tumors during the last 7 years. The following parameters were analyzed for outcome evaluation: general condition, surgical complications, local disease control, overall survival, and functional score measured using the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) 93 scoring system. RESULTS Percutaneous microwave ablation in one patient with osteoid osteoma and another with bone metastasis resulted in postoperative pain relief. Thirteen patients received intraoperative microwave ablation before curettage or resection, including those with giant cell tumors of bone (6), chondroblastoma (2), osteosarcoma (2), undifferentiated sarcoma (1), and bone metastases (2). All patients achieved reasonable local tumor control in the mean follow-up of 29.9 months. The functional score was 24.1 for the 15 patients 6 months after the operation. Four patients had tumor metastasis and died, whereas 3 patients with tumors survived, and the remaining 8 patients without the disease survived. CONCLUSIONS Microwave ablation represents an optional method for local control in treating recurrent bone tumors in the extremities.

Abstract
Background Osteoid osteoma (OO) comprises approximately 11%-14% of benign bone tumors. The main symptom of OO is localized pain accompanied by nighttime aggravation. Surgical treatment is frequently used in clinic, including open surgery and percutaneous ablation, the latter including radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, and microwave ablation, but there is no consensus on when and how to choose the best treatment for OO. Purpose We did a systematic review of the literature on existing surgical treatments of OO to assess the safety and efficacy of surgical treatments of OO and to evaluate the surgical options for different locations of OO. Methods The inclusion criteria in the literature are 1. Patients diagnosed with osteoid osteoma and treated surgically; 2. Include at least five patients; 3. Perioperative visual analogue scale (VAS), postoperative complications, and recurrence were recorded; 4. Literature available in PubMed from January 2014 to December 2021. Results In the cohort, 1565 patients (mainly adolescents) with OO received 1615 treatments. And there are 70 patients with postoperative recurrence and 93 patients with postoperative complications (minor: major=84:9). The results of Kruskal-Wallis examination of each experimental index in this experiment were clinical success rate H=14.818, p=0.002, postoperative short-term VAS score H=212.858, p<0.001, postoperative long-term VAS score H=122.290, p<0.001, complication rate H=102.799, p<0.001, recurrence rate H=17.655, p<0.001, the technical success rate was H=45.708, p<0.001, according to the test criteria of α=0.05, H0 was rejected. The overall means of the outcome index in each group were not completely equal. Conclusion Percutaneous ablation and open surgery are safe and reliable for OOs, and the technical success rate of percutaneous ablation is higher than that of open surgery. Open surgery and cryoablation can be selected for OOs close to the nerve and atypical sites, while radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation can be selected for OOs in most other sites.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical effects of microwave ablation (MWA) in addition to open surgery for the treatment of lung cancer-derived thoracolumbar metastases. METHODS This was a single-institution, retrospective, cohort study. From January 2019 to December 2020, a total of 47 patients with lung cancer-derived thoracolumbar metastases underwent posterior spinal canal decompression and fixation surgery in our hospital. Two independent surgical teams treated these patients. One group underwent open surgery combined with MWA therapy, while the other had open surgery only (control). The pre- and post-operative visual analog scale (VAS) scores and the overall survival (OS) were compared between the MWA and control groups. The Frankel Grade classification was applied for the evaluation of the post-surgical spinal cord function. Improvement was defined as an increase of at least one rank from the pre-operative scores. Each patient was evaluated pre- and post-operatively at 48 h, 1 month, and 3-month intervals. Data on surgical-related complications were recorded. RESULTS Thirty men and 17 women were included, with an average age of 57.9 ± 11.4 years (range, 26-81 years). Twenty-eight patients underwent MWA and were in the MWA group, and 19 patients were included in the control group. Post-operatively all patients were followed up regularly; the median follow-up time was 12 months (range, 3-24 months), and their median OS was 14 months. Patients in the MWA group had a lower VAS score than those in the control group at the 48-h (1.75 ± 1.01 vs 2.47 ± 0.96, P = 0.01) and 1-month (1.79 ± 0.92 vs 2.53 ± 1.35, P = 0.048) check-ups. At the 3-month evaluation, the VAS score differences between the two groups were not significant (P = 0.133). After surgery, spinal cord function improvement was not significantly different between the MWA and control groups (P = 0.515). MWA therapy combined with open surgery was not associated with increased OS compared with the control group (P = 0.492). CONCLUSION MWA can be an effective and safe pain-relief method but may not extend the OS of patients with lung cancer.

Abstract
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.

Skeletal Radiol 2022; 51:855-861. [PMID: 34515814 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-021-03904-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2021] [Revised: 08/21/2021] [Accepted: 09/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report a single center's experience evaluating the efficacy and safety of computed tomography-guided radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of osteoid osteoma in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional database research identified 33 symptomatic patients (≤ 18 years of age; male/female ratio: 21/12, mean age 13.09 ± 3.66) with osteoid osteoma who were treated by CT-guided RFA. Technical and clinical success as well as complication rates were recorded. The duration of the procedure, the number of computed tomography scans and the results of the biopsy were assessed. Pain, prior, the following morning and 1 week, 1/6/12 months after the procedure were compared by means of a numeric visual scale (NVS) questionnaire. RESULTS Mean lesion size was 8.28 ± 4.24 mm. Mean follow-up was 23.33 ± 17.61 months (range 12-62). Mean pain score prior to radiofrequency ablation was 9.06 ± 0.80 NVS units. On week 1 and 1/6/12 months, all patients were pain-free reporting 0 NVS units (p < 0.05). The mean procedure time was 54 min (range 51-59) and a mean of 7 CT scans were performed during the ablation session. RF electrode was successfully placed in the center of the nidus in all cases. In our study, none of our patient experienced recurrence of the pain, nor complications. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that percutaneous CT-guided radiofrequency ablation constitutes a safe and effective technique for osteoid osteoma treatment in children.

Abstract
Background Percutaneous thermal ablation is an effective, minimally invasive means of treating a variety of focal benign and malignant osseous lesions. To determine the role of ablation in individual cases, multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussion is required to assess the suitability and feasibility of a thermal ablative approach, to select the most appropriate technique and to set the goals of treatment i.e. curative or palliative. Purpose This document will presume the indication for treatment is clear and approved by the MDT and will define the standards required for the performance of each modality. CIRSE Standards of Practice documents are not intended to impose a standard of clinical patient care, but recommend a reasonable approach to, and best practices for, the performance of thermal ablation of bone tumours. Methods The writing group was established by the CIRSE Standards of Practice Committee and consisted of five clinicians with internationally recognised expertise in thermal ablation of bone tumours. The writing group reviewed the existing literature on thermal ablation of bone tumours, performing a pragmatic evidence search using PubMed to search for publications in English and relating to human subjects from 2009 to 2019. Selected studies published in 2020 and 2021 during the course of writing these standards were subsequently included. The final recommendations were formulated through consensus. Results Recommendations were produced for the performance of thermal ablation of bone tumours taking into account the biologic behaviour of the tumour and the therapeutic intent of the procedure. Recommendations are provided based on lesion characteristics and thermal modality, for the use of tissue monitoring and protection, and for the appropriately timed application of adjunctive procedures such as osseus consolidation and transarterial embolisation. Results Percutaneous thermal ablation has an established role in the successful management of bone lesions, with both curative and palliative intent. This Standards of Practice document provides up-to-date recommendations for the safe performance of thermal ablation of bone tumours.

Abstract
Osteoid osteoma (OO) is one of the most common benign bone tumors with specific clinical and radiological characteristics. Analgesic therapy and surgical treatment have been considered the only therapy for a long time. Recently, safe and effective new therapeutic options have been introduced, among which percutaneous thermal ablation techniques. This review aims to describe the recent updates in the field of percutaneous thermal ablation techniques in the treatment of OO, assessing the outcomes in terms of efficacy, complications, and recurrence rate.

Abstract
Bone metastases and osteoid osteoma (OO) have a high incidence in patients facing primary lesions in many organs. Radiotherapy has long been the standard choice for these patients, performed as stand-alone or in conjunction with surgery. However, the needs of these patients have never been fully met, especially in the ones with low life expectancy, where treatments devoted to pain reduction are pivotal. New techniques as hyperthermia treatments (HTs) are emerging to reduce the associated pain of bone metastases and OO. Temperature monitoring during HTs may significantly improve the clinical outcomes since the amount of thermal injury depends on the tissue temperature and the exposure time. This is particularly relevant in bone tumors due to the adjacent vulnerable structures (e.g., spinal cord and nerve roots). In this Review, we focus on the potential of temperature monitoring on HT of bone cancer. Preclinical and clinical studies have been proposed and are underway to investigate the use of different thermometric techniques in this scenario. We review these studies, the principle of work of the thermometric techniques used in HTs, their strengths, weaknesses, and pitfalls, as well as the strategies and the potential of improving the HTs outcomes.

Abstract
Osteoid osteomas are one of the most common bone tumors. Although benign in nature, they can cause significant pain and distress to the afflicted patient. The main goal of treatment is to relieve pain. Historically, these tumors were treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or surgery. Percutaneous ablative techniques have since gained popularity because of their efficacy and low risk profiles. Radiofrequency ablation was the first of these technologies used in the treatment of these tumors. More recently, microwave ablation has gained popularity. However, the literature is sparse regarding the safety and efficacy of this treatment. Here, we discuss our experience with microwave ablation in the treatment of osteoid osteomas in two patients and review the current literature on this technique. Microwave ablation in the treatment of osteoid osteoma seems to be a safe and effective treatment for this tumor.

Abstract
Osteoid osteoma is the third most common benign bone tumor, with well-known clinical presentation and radiological features. Although surgical excision has been the only therapeutic option for a long time, to date it has been replaced by minimally invasive techniques, which proved satisfactory success rates and low complication occurrence. Therefore, the purpose of this literature review was to describe the main updates of these recent procedures in the field of interventional radiology, with particular attention paid to the results of the leading studies relating to the efficacy, complications, and recurrence rate. Nevertheless, this study aimed to analyze the peculiarities of each reported technique, with specific focus on the possible improvements and pitfalls. Results proved that all mininvasive procedures boast a high success rate with slight number of complications and a low recurrence rate. Radiofrequency ablation is still considered the gold standard procedure for percutaneous treatment of osteoid osteoma, and it has the possibility to combine treatment with a biopsy. Interstitial laser ablation's advantages are the simplicity of use and a lower cost of the electrodes, while cryoablation allows real-time visualization of the ablated zone, increasing the treatment safety. Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery is the most innovative non-invasive procedure, with the unquestionable advantage to be radiation free.

Abstract
Background The traditional treatment for osteoid osteoma is the nidus’ surgical resection, which was difficult to eradicate with more invasive and complications because of osteosclerosis surrounding the nidus. This study aimed to analyze the efficacy and safety of percutaneous CT-guided cryoablation of osteoid osteoma at different sites (especially refractory sites such as the spine). Methods Fifteen patients with osteoid osteoma who underwent cryoablation at our institution were analyzed retrospectively on their imaging data and clinical visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores before and after the procedure. Fifty-three patients underwent surgical resection during the period were also included in this study as a control group. Treatment efficacy was assessed primarily by comparing the differences in VAS scores at different time points in each group of patients by paired-sample t-test. Differences in length of hospital stay and complications between the two groups were also compared. Results The technical success rate was 100% in both the cryoablation and surgical resection group. Cryoablation had a significantly shorter hospitalization time than surgery (p = 0.001). Clinically, the post-operative VAS scores were all significantly improved compared to the pre-operative period, and the clinical cure was achieved in both groups. Surgical operations had more complications than cryoablation, although there was no significant difference. In the group of cryoablation, only one patient had mild numbness of the left lower extremity, which relieved itself; two patients had mild post-operative pain. No patients in the cryoablation group experienced recurrence during the follow-up period. In the surgery group, three of the patients experienced massive bleeding (>500 ml), and two underwent transfusion therapy. Only one patient in the surgical resection group experienced a recurrence at 29 months postoperatively and underwent a second resection. All patients had local scars on the skin after surgical resection. Conclusion Cryoablation is a minimally invasive, safe, and effective treatment strategy for osteoid osteoma, and is fully comparable to surgical resection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoid osteomas are benign bone tumors commonly treated using thermal ablation. We compare the technical success, complication rates, and long-term efficacy of the two most common ablation types: radiofrequency and microwave. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed of all osteoid osteoma ablation procedures between 2007 and 2017. A ten-point numerical pain scale was used to quantify symptoms before and after the procedures with > 12-month follow-up. Complications were reported using the Society of Interventional Radiology Adverse Events reporting criteria. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients successfully underwent 15 radiofrequency ablations and 15 microwave ablations with a technical success rate of 83% for radiofrequency and 100% for microwave (p = 0.23). Long-term recurrence rates (p = 1.0) and complication rates (p = 0.60) were not significantly different for the groups. One patient developed a skin burn following microwave ablation and another developed 12 months of sciatic neuropathy following radiofrequency ablation. CONCLUSION Microwave and radiofrequency ablation are safe and effective methods for treating osteoid osteomas with similar long-term efficacies. Although radiofrequency ablation is more commonly reported to result in skin burns, this complication can arise during microwave ablation.

Abstract
AIM To systematically review microwave ablation (MWA) protocols, safety, and clinical efficacy for treating bone tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Web of Science database. Data concerning patient demographics, tumor characteristics, procedure, complications, and clinical outcomes were extracted and analyzed. RESULTS Seven non-comparative studies (6 retrospective, 1 prospective) were included accounting for 249 patients and 306 tumors (244/306 [79.7%] metastases; 25/306 [8.2%] myelomas, and 37/306 [12.1%] osteoid osteomas [OO]). In malignant tumors, MWA power was 30-70 W (except in one spinal tumors series where a mean power of 13.3 W was used) with pooled mean ablation time of 308.3 s. With OO, MWA power was 30-60 W with mean ablation time of 90-102 s. Protective measures were very sporadically used in 5 studies. Additional osteoplasty was performed in 199/269 (74.0%) malignant tumors. Clinically significant complications were noted in 10/249 (4.0%) patients. For malignant tumors, estimated pain reduction on the numerical rating scale was 5.3/10 (95% confidence intervals [95%CI] 4.6-6.1) at 1 month; and 5.3/10 (95% CI 4.3-6.3) at the last recorded follow-up (range 20-24 weeks in 4/5 studies). For OO, at 1-month follow-up, effective pain relief was noted in 92.3-100% of patients. CONCLUSION MWA is effective in achieving pain relief at short- (1 month) and mid-term (4-6 months) for painful OO and malignant bone tumors, respectively. Although MWA seems safe, further prospective studies are warranted to further assess this aspect, and to standardize MWA protocols. KEY POINTS • Large heterogeneity exists across literature about ablation protocols used with microwave ablation applied for the treatment of benign and malignant bone tumors. • Although microwave ablation of bone tumors appears safe, further studies are needed to assess this aspect, as current literature does not allow definitive conclusions. • Nevertheless, microwave ablation is effective in achieving pain relief at short- (1 month) and mid-term (4-6 months) for painful osteoid osteomas and malignant bone tumors, respectively.

Abstract
Management of musculoskeletal (MSK) tumours has traditionally been delivered by surgeons and medical oncologists. However, in recent years, image-guided interventional oncology (IO) has significantly impacted the clinical management of MSK tumours. With the rapid evolution of relevant technologies and the expanding range of clinical indications, it is likely that the impact of IO will significantly grow and further evolve in the near future.In this narrative review, we describe well-established and new interventional technologies that are currently integrating into the IO armamentarium available to radiologists to treat MSK tumours and illustrate new emerging IO indications for treatment.

Abstract
Microwave ablation has been used to treat bone tumors in extremities for more than 30 years. With improved recognition, updated microwave equipment, and expanded clinical application, microwave ablation has recently been widely used to treat bone tumors. To standardize the application of microwave ablation in the clinical treatment of bone tumors in the limbs, research results and clinical experience involving the use of microwave ablation to treat bone tumors in the limbs have been summarized, and a clinical guideline has been designed. This guideline is aimed at providing a reliable clinical basis for indications, preoperative evaluation and decision-making, perioperative treatment, complications, and other issues via evidence-based medicine. Two aspects are considered-percutaneous microwave ablation and intraoperative microwave ablation of bone tumors in extremities. Ultimately, the guideline is intended to standardize treatment and improve the clinical efficacy of microwave ablation of bone tumors in extremities.

Wu MH, Xiao LF, Yan FF, Chen SL, Zhang C, Lei J, Deng ZM. Use of percutaneous microwave ablation for the treatment of bone tumors: a retrospective study of clinical outcomes in 47 patients. Cancer Imaging 2019; 19:87. [PMID: 31849340 PMCID: PMC6918630 DOI: 10.1186/s40644-019-0275-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2019] [Accepted: 12/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the short-term clinical performance and safety of percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) techniques for the treatment of bone tumors. Methods This single-institution retrospective study investigated 47 cases of bone tumors treated by MWA from June 2015 to June 2018. The study included 26 patients (55.3%) with benign bone tumors and 21 patients (44.7%) with malignant bone tumors. The tumors were located in the spine or sacrum (15, 31.9%), the upper extremities (6, 12.8%), the lower extremities (17, 36.2%) and the pelvis (9, 19.1%). Outcomes regarding clinical efficacy, including pain relief, quality of life, and intervention-related complications, were evaluated before and after MWA using the visual analog scale (VAS) and the 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) scoring system. Results Of the 47 patients included in this study, all of them completed follow-up examinations, with a mean follow-up duration of 4.8 ± 1.6 months (range, 2–9 months). Significantly improved VAS and SF-36 scores were recorded after the initial treatment (P<0.001), suggesting that almost 100% of patients experienced pain relief and an improved quality of life following surgery. No major intervention-related complications (e.g., serious neurovascular injury or infection) occurred during or after the treatment. We recorded only three minor posttreatment complications (6.4%, 3/47), which were related to thermal injury that caused myofasciitis and affected wound healing. Conclusion In our study, the short-term efficacy of MWA was considerably favorable, with a relatively low rate of complications. Our results also showed that MWA was effective for pain relief and improved patients’ quality of life, making it a feasible treatment alternative for bone tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Image-guided percutaneous microwave ablation has been used to treat adult osteoid osteomas but has not been thoroughly evaluated in the pediatric population. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the technical feasibility and clinical efficacy of microwave ablation to treat osteoid osteomas in pediatric patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The electronic medical record and imaging archive were reviewed for 24 consecutive patients who had undergone microwave ablation of osteoid osteomas between January 1, 2015, and May 31, 2018, at a single tertiary care pediatric hospital. All patients were diagnosed by clinical and imaging criteria, and referred by a pediatric orthopedic surgeon after failing conservative management with pain medication. The average age of the patients was 13.3 years (range: 3-18 years), and the average size of the osteoid osteoma nidus was 8.8 mm (range: 5-22 mm). Technical success was defined as placement of the microwave antenna at the distal margin of the lesion nidus and achievement of the target ablation temperature. Clinical findings were assessed pre- and post-ablation and clinical success was defined as complete relief of pain without pain medication at 1-month follow-up. The number and severity of complications were also documented. RESULTS Clinical success was achieved in 100% of patients (24/24), with all reporting complete cessation of pain medication use 1 week after treatment and 0/10 pain at 1 month. There were 4 minor complications (17%) including access site numbness and a minor soft-tissue infection. There were no major complications. CONCLUSION Microwave ablation is a technically feasible and clinically effective treatment for pediatric osteoid osteomas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ablative treatments can sometimes cause collateral injury to surrounding muscular tissue, with important clinical implications. In this study, we investigated the changes in muscle physiology of the human vastus lateralis when exposed to three different ablation modalities: radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, and microwave ablation. METHODS We obtained fresh vastus lateralis tissue biopsy specimens from nine patients (age range: 29-73 years) who were undergoing in vitro contracture testing for malignant hyperthermia. Using leftover waste tissue, we prepared 46 muscle bundles that were utilized in tissue baths before and after ablation. RESULTS After ablation with all the three modalities, we noted dose-dependent sustained reductions in peak force (strength of contraction), as well as transient increases in baseline force (resting muscle tension). But, over the subsequent 3-h recovery period, peak force improved and the baseline force consistently recovered to below its preablation levels. CONCLUSION The novel in vitro methodologies we developed to investigate changes in muscle physiology after ablation can be used to study a spectrum of ablation modalities and also to make head-to-head comparisons of different ablation modalities. SIGNIFICANCE As the role of ablative treatments continues to expand, our findings provide unique insights into the resulting changes in muscle physiology. These insights could enhance the safety and efficacy of ablations and help individuals design and develop novel medical devices.

Abstract
Osteoid osteoma is a common benign tumor that is typically found in young adults and children, usually in the long bones of the lower extremity. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) under computed tomography guidance is the standard of care for symptomatic osteoid osteomas. However, patients with osteoid osteoma of the hand or foot are often treated with open surgery because of the risk of injury to vascular and neural structures from RFA. This risk is more pronounced in pediatric patients because of the small lesion size and proximity of lesions to important neurovascular structures. Here, we present 2 pediatric patients, one with an osteoid osteoma in the hand and the other with an osteoid osteoma in the foot. In both patients, a 22-gauge, 2.5-mm active tip ablation probe was used. The smaller ablation volume achieved with this probe protected neighboring neurovascular structures while effectively ablating the osteoid osteoma nidus. Based on our success in these cases, we recommend the application of this method for cases in which neurovascular proximity to the osteoid osteoma lesion makes ablation challenging.
