Abstract
An osteoid osteoma nidus was removed under computed tomography (CT) scan guidance. This procedure may have advantages over en bloc resection for treatment of osteoid osteoma since it ensures the removal of the nidus without producing a large bony defect such as results from en bloc resection.
