RESUMO
Contemporary treatment of osteoid osteoma involves percutaneous imaging-guided therapy. Radiofrequency ablation (under computed tomographic guidance) remains the standard of care. Herein, the authors describe the successful treatment of two osteoid osteomas by using percutaneous cryoablation in difficult-to-access areas.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this article is to familiarize the reader with the sonographic, CT, MR cholangiopancreatography, and ERCP appearances of recurrent pyogenic cholangitis and to briefly review the role of interventional radiology in the management of this disease. CONCLUSION: Recurrent pyogenic cholangitis is a complex disease, the incidence of which is increasing in Western countries. Radiologists should be aware of the role of imaging in the diagnosis of this disease and the use of imaging as a guideline for subsequent intervention.
