Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Localization of small femur lesions for resection can be challenging and may be associated with the need for significant fluoroscopic imaging and tissue dissection.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study was performed to evaluate the use of a radiopaque localizer grid along with methylene blue staining for resection of small femur lesions in children, and to determine this technique's effectiveness at reducing radiation exposure and tissue injury.
