Procedure technique consisted of inserting a needle through the bony palate of the oral cavity. Bone cement injected under pressure not only fills the areas of bone loss.

متن کاملSeven-year survival after intralesional resection and adjuvant radiotherapy for a giant-cell tumour of the sixth cervical vertebra.
G iant-cell tumours (GCTs) are relatively common in the appendicular skeleton and frequently occur in the epiphyseal region. They rarely occur in the spine, and when they do develop in the axial skeleton, it is usually in the sacrum. Giant-cell tumours are osteolytic tumours comprising about 5% of primary bone tumours and less than 5% of primary bone tumours in the spine. They occur primarily d...
