Abstract Interventional radiology has an important role on benign bone tumours involved in the treatment of the patient(therapeutic role) as well as the diagnosis of disease (diagnostic role). It offers an alternative to the surgical treatment of many conditions and can eliminate the need for hospitalization, in some cases Image-Guided Percutaneous Biopsy becoming an increasingly accepted modality for initial biopsy in most musculoskeletal tumors. All biopsies planned in consultation with the referring orthopedic surgeon. Needle pathway decided on the basis of the expected definitive treatment to avoid inter-compartmental contamination, to minimize the amount of biopsy tract that removed at the time of definitive surgery and to avoid neurovascular structures. (James S. Jelinek et.al.,2002) There are many therapeutic roles of intervention radiology on benign bone tumors like Percutaneous thermal ablation includes (Radio-frequency, Microwave or Laser photocoagulation ablations)- cryoablation – cementoplasty(verebroplasty) - selective transcatheter arterial embolization - direct Percutaneous intra-tumoural injections and adjuvants like ethanol.(Erkan Y.et al., 2002) |
