(99m)Tc-methylene diphosphonate single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography improves the diagnostic accuracy of osteoid osteoma
We present a case of a 17-year-old football player who had previously received multiple facet joint injections for presumed secondary osteoarthritis. (99)mTc-methylene diphosphonate single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography imaging of the cervical spine demonstrated focal increa...

| Sumario: | We present a case of a 17-year-old football player who had previously received multiple facet joint injections for presumed secondary osteoarthritis. (99)mTc-methylene diphosphonate single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography imaging of the cervical spine demonstrated focal increased radiopharmaceutical activity in the right C2 lamina, which was associated with an osteolytic lesion with a central irregular sclerotic nidus. Surgical pathology confirmed an osteoid osteoma. |
