A rare case of vertebral osteoclastoma in the body of T8 is presented. Attention is drawn to its unusual radiological features, not previously reported, and to the relative inefficiency of radiotherapy. The most rational treatment for such a tumour appears to be the widest surgical decompression possible, followed by low-dose irradiation.

Abstract
A rare case of vertebral osteoclastoma in the body of T8 is presented. Attention is drawn to its unusual radiological features, not previously reported, and to the relative inefficiency of radiotherapy. The most rational treatment for such a tumour appears to be the widest surgical decompression possible, followed by low-dose irradiation.File in questo prodotto:
