Purpose. Our aim is to evaluate the results of treatment with computed tomography (CT) guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for @entity10545 which were localized in a difficult area for operation. Materials and Methods. Glenoid, distal tibia, humerus shaft, proximal humerus, and in third finger of the hand proximal phalanx were involved in one @entity1 . Proximal femur was involved in three @entity1 , distal femur was involved in three @entity1 , and proximal tibia was involved in two @entity1 . 9 males and 4 females were aged 4 to 34 years (mean age: 18.5 years). All @entity1 had @entity158 and were evaluated with X-rays, CT, bone scintigraphy, and MRI. In all @entity1 , @entity6470 ablation was performed with local anesthesia. The lesion heated to 90  C for 6 minutes. Results. All of the @entity1 achieved complete @entity158 relief after ablation and were fully weight bearing without any support. In all @entity1 , there was soft tissue @entity4 after the procedure. During follow-up, all @entity1 were free from the @entity158 and there was no sign about the @entity5 . There was no other complication after the process. Conclusion. CT guided RFA is a minimally invasive, safe, and cost-effective treatment for @entity10545 placed in difficult area for surgery.
