title: Percutaneous thermoablation of osteoid osteoma--a case study.
abstract: Osteoid osteoma has been traditionally treated by curettage and en bloc resection.  These methods are now being replaced by low-invasive techniques. We present the description of a percutaneous thermoablation of a femoral neck osteoid osteoma performed under CT guidance in a 22-year-old female patient.
