Abstract:
Objective To summarize the clinical experience of diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment of intratment of intra ular osteoid osteoma.Methods Seven patients(average 22.4 years old with range from 11~32 years)with intra-articular Osteoid osteoma who underwent arthroscopy treatment from March 2006 to June 2009 were studied respectively.Thin-section CT scanning was used to confirm diagnosis and determine surgery location.Results The time span between the appearance of clinical symptoms and confirmed diagnosis was 26.0 months on average(range from 18 to 36 months).At a mean 19-month follow-up,all patients showed significant improvements including VAS decrease,no recurrence,pain relief and normal range of motion.Conclusion The atypical clinical features and radiographic findings of osetoid osteoma might lead to the delayed diagnosis.Using arthroscopy to remove intro-articular osteoid ostema was a safe and effective way.
