Bone Diseases Clinic

The Bone Diseases Clinic at Shaare Zedek Medical Center specializes in treating children's bone problems that are not directly related to fractures or injuries (such as fractures, fissures, etc.). It primarily deals with benign and malignant bone tumors and infectious, metabolic, and developmental processes.

Within the clinic, a thorough investigation of the problem is conducted, including advanced imaging tests and CT-guided biopsies and treatments.

Dr. Bernstein-Weil is one of the leading experts in Israel with extensive experience in the ablation (burning) of benign lesions using the Radio-Frequency CT-Guided Ablation of Bone Tumors technique. This treatment method is currently the most effective for the majority of cases of Osteoid Osteoma, a bone growth that causes severe and unexplained pain in children and young adults.

Metabolic bone diseases are also diagnosed and managed in this clinic, in collaboration with physicians from the Pediatric Hospital in various fields, such as endocrinology, gastroenterology, nephrology, genetics, neurology, and more.
