“…Previous clinical experiences in the literature describe the frequent use of sclerotherapy and percutaneous cryoablation procedures for FAVA [12][13][14] and the high risk of blood loss and nervous system damage related to primary surgery in FAVA [6]. Thus, the multidisciplinary team proposed an original hybrid treatment strategy of primary percutaneous ethanol embolization of the FAVA and a secondary surgical excision of the mass.…”

BackgroundFirst identified in 2014, fibroadipose vascular anomaly (FAVA) is a very rare type of venous and lymphatic malformation. Marked by tough fibrofatty tissue in the extremities overtaking portions of the muscles, it is associated with constant pain and contracture of the affected extremity. There is a paucity of literature, and no guidelines on treatment procedure are available. This case highlights the role of hybrid treatment with primary ethanol percutaneous ethanol embolization and additional surgery for radicality in excision of FAVA lesions.Case summaryA 9-year-old girl with FAVA underwent the hybrid treatment. The achievements of complete excision, clinical response, and patient satisfaction in long-term follow-up were assessed. Following the hybrid treatment, the patient experienced significant improvement in pain. Concurrent symptoms of physical limitation, leg swelling, and skin hyperesthesia also improved. The clinical benefit, supported by postoperative physiotherapy, was well stabilized at 6-month follow-up, resulting in complete patient satisfaction at 12- and 36-month follow-ups. No major complications were encountered.ConclusionEthanol embolization plus surgery is a safe, effective, and long-term hybrid treatment of symptomatic FAVA lesions.

“…The most common complications described with cryoablation are damage to skin, neural injury, muscle injury, pathologic fracture, and tumor lysis. [17][18][19] MR-guided Focused Ultrasound MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a form of thermal ablation that relies on high-energy sound waves focused on a single point, similar to a magnifying glass focusing light. MRgFUS represents the MR-guided version of high-intensity focused ultrasound that has been used in medicine in various forms since the 1950s.…”

Percutaneous ablation of benign musculoskeletal tumors in children has become an area of significant clinical growth over the last decade. With growing research interest, the technologies available and techniques used are becoming increasingly safe and effective. We review some of the more common ablation technologies and their utility in several common benign bone and soft tissue tumors that occur in children and young adults.

Imaging-Guided Percutaneous Cryotherapy of Bone and Soft-Tissue Tumors: What Is the Impact on the Muscles Around the Ablation Site?

Abstract: Muscular injury around the cryoablation site is commonly observed and is correlated with the volume of the ice ball. When muscular injury around the cryoablation site causes pain, the symptoms differ from the initial tumoral pain and can be treated with antiinflammatory drugs.
