    Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous cryoablation in the treatment of abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) nodules.
    Materials and methods: Thirty-eight women treated for symptomatic AWE nodules with percutaneous cryoablation under ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) guidance between May 2020 and July 2023 were retrospectively included. Pain was estimated using visual analog scale (VAS) and assessed at baseline, three months, six months, and 12 months after percutaneous cryoablation. Baseline VAS score, volume of AWE nodule and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of AWE nodules were compared to those obtained after percutaneous cryoablation. Major complications, if any, were noted.
    Results: Thirty-eight women with a median age of 35.5 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 32, 39; range: 24-48 years) and a total of 60 AWE nodules were treated. Percutaneous cryoablation was performed under local or regional anesthesia in 30 women (30/38; 79%). Significant decreases between initial median VAS score (7; IQR: 6, 8; range: 3-10) and median VAS score after treatment at three months (0; IQR: 0, 5; range; 0-8) (P < 0.001), six months (0; IQR: 0, 1; range; 0-10) (P < 0.001) and 12 months (0; IQR: 0, 2; range: 0-7) (P < 0.001) were observed. Percutaneous cryoablation resulted in effective pain relief in 31 out of 38 women (82%) at six months and 15 out of 18 women (83%) at 12 months. Contrast-enhanced MRI at six-month follow-up showed a significant decrease in the volume of AWE nodules and the absence of AWE nodule enhancement after treatment by comparison with baseline MRI (P < 0.001). No major complications were reported.
    Conclusion: Percutaneous cryoablation is an effective, minimally invasive intervention for the treatment of AWE nodules that conveys minimal or no morbidity.

    Abstract Background: In determining the level of bone resection in Ewing sarcoma, the most suitable time at which to perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains controversial. Current guidelines recommend that surgical planning be based on MRI performed prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The goal of this study was to determine whether pre-chemotherapy or post-chemotherapy MRI provides greater accuracy of tumor limits for planning bone excision in the management of Ewing sarcoma.
    Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective study. MRI was performed using 3 sequences: T1-weighted, T1-weighted with contrast enhancement by gadolinium injection, and a fluid-sensitive sequence (STIR [short tau inversion recovery] or proton-density-weighted with fat saturation). The tumor extent as assessed on pre-chemotherapy and post-chemotherapy MRI was compared with histological measurement of the resected specimen.
    Results: Twenty patients with Ewing sarcoma of a long bone were included. In 6 cases, the tumor was located on the femur, in 5, the tibia; in 5, the fibula; and in 4, the humerus. The median patient age at diagnosis was 9.7 years. We found greater accuracy of measurements from MRI scans acquired after chemotherapy than from those acquired before chemotherapy. For both pre-chemotherapy and post-chemotherapy MRI, the greatest accuracy was achieved with the nonenhanced T1 sequence. There was no benefit to gadolinium enhancement. The median difference between T1 MRI and histological measurements was 19.0 mm (interquartile range [IQR], 4.3 to 32.8 mm) before chemotherapy and 5.0 mm (IQR, 2.0 to 13.0 mm) after chemotherapy. Adding a minimum margin of 20 mm to the limit of the tumor on post-chemotherapy T1 MRI always led to safe histological margin.
    Conclusions: Post-chemotherapy MRI provided a more accurate assessment of the limits of Ewing sarcoma. Surgical planning can therefore be based on post-chemotherapy MRI. Surgical cuts can be, at minimum, 20 mm from the limits as seen on MRI.
