Résumé

Purpose To retrospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous image-guided laser photocoagulation for the treatment of spinal osteoid osteoma (OO) in proximity to neural structures. Materials and Methods This study was institutional review board-approved with waivers of informed consent. From January 1994 until October 2014, 58 patients with spinal OO (mean age, 25 years; 40 men, 17 women) were treated in one institution by using laser photocoagulation with combined computed tomographic (CT) and fluoroscopic guidance. One patient was excluded because of less than 3 months of follow-up. All patients had typical clinical and imaging findings. Clinical features, radiologic data, and procedure-related data were reviewed, and limitations, complications, and failure rate were evaluated. All data were expressed as means +/- standard deviation. P values of less than .05 were indicative of statistical significance. Results OO was in the vertebral body for 18 of 57 patients, the neural arch for 21 of 57 patients, and the articular process for 18 of 57 patients. Mean nidal diameter was 8 mm, and the mean distance from the closest neural structure was 6.6 mm (minimum distance,
