New research

  1. CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of a tibial osteoid osteoma in pregnancy.

    Skeletal Radiology · Jul 23 2026 · PubMed

    CT-guided radiofrequency ablation safely treated osteoid osteoma in a pregnant patient with minimal radiation exposure, providing pain relief when NSAIDs are contraindicated.

  2. Revisiting Survival in the Treatment of Spinal Metastases From Lung Cancer in the Modern Era of Immunotherapy and Molecular Targeted Treatment (2017-2022).

    Spine · Jul 15 2026 · PubMed

    Spinal metastases from lung cancer carry higher one-year mortality; surgical intervention and good nutritional status improve survival, while immunotherapy shows only short-term benefit.

  3. Are Early-career Orthopaedic Oncologists Performing Fewer Tumor Surgeries as the Number of Fellowships Increase?

    Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research · Jul 15 2026 · PubMed

    Early-career orthopaedic oncologists experience declining tumor case volume despite increasing fellowship numbers, with multifellowship training becoming more common.

  4. A novel inflammatory-nutritional nomogram for predicting survival after minimally invasive surgery for spinal metastases: a comparison with the Katagiri and SORG systems.

    European Spine Journal · Jul 01 2026 · PubMed

    A novel nomogram integrating inflammatory-nutritional markers outperforms traditional anatomical scoring systems for predicting survival in spinal metastases treated with minimally invasive surgery.

Recent reviews

  1. Surgical Management of Fibrous Dysplasia and Associated Syndromes.

    Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons · Jun 09 2025 · PubMed

    Review covers surgical management strategies for fibrous dysplasia, noting bisphosphonates help early disease while strut allografts and angled blade plates show best long-term results for advanced deformities like shepherd's crook.

  2. Operative management of metastatic disease of the acetabulum: review of the literature and prevailing concepts.

    Hip International · Mar 2023 · PubMed

    Cemented total hip arthroplasty and porous tantalum reconstructions provide stable, durable constructs for acetabular metastases, enabling immediate weight-bearing and functional independence.

  3. Musculoskeletal oncology and thermal ablation: the current and emerging role of interventional radiology.

    Skeletal Radiology · Mar 2023 · PubMed

    Image-guided thermal ablation by interventional radiology provides a minimally invasive approach for musculoskeletal tumors including metastases and benign lesions with improving efficacy.
