Chondromyxoid fibroma of the distal fibula treated by percutaneous radiofrequency ablation.

RFA induces local heat in the ablation field and causes tissue necrosis. The depth of heat penetration and the size of heated sphere are accurately controlled by modern types of ablation probes and accurate positioning. The current report demonstrates the ability to use this percutaneous technique for larger and more aggressive bone tumors than has been indicated previously.
