title: Osteoid osteoma of the neck of the talus: percutaneous, computed tomography-guided technique for complete excision.
abstract: CT-guided core drill excision of talar neck osteoid osteomas, in addition to other locations, appears to be a promising alternative to standard surgical treatment. As in this report, the technique is minimally invasive, which allows for complete, accurate excision and early return to activity.
