Peroperative isotopic detection, which was rendered possible by use of the cadmium telluride semi-conductor probe developed by C. Proye et al., has permitted nidus removal, as well as promoting cure in case of osteoid osteoma, by limiting bone resection to a strict minimum. Five cases are presented, all children. The method seems to present great value, particularly in case of localisations involving the spine or the neck of the femur.
