Bone Tumors. Most of them are highly malignant and affect children frequently. Regional lymph nodes are rarely affected. Bone neoplasms change or destroy the structure of the bone, and accordingly they show up as characteristic lesions in the radiographs.

Most of them are highly malignant and affect children frequently. • Regional lymph nodes are rarely affected. • Bone neoplasms change or destroy the structure of the bone, and accordingly they show up as characteristic lesions in the radiographs. • As clinical features such as pain, swelling and discomfort are nonspecific, a long period of time may elapse until the correct diagnosis is achieved.
Primary Bone Tumors • Metastatic Bone Disease
Primary Bone Tumors NON-MALIGNANT MALIGNANT Osteosarcoma Chondrosarcoma Ewing’s Sarcoma/Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor (PNET) Lymphoma Multiple Myeloma • OsteoidOsteoma • Osteoblastoma • Enchondroma • PeriostealChondroma • Osteochondroma • Chondroblastoma • ChondromyxoidFibroma • Giant Cell Tumor of Bone • Massive Osteolysis ( Gorham’s Disease) • IntraosseousLipoma
Osteoid Osteoma • …uniquely painful benign lesions that most commonly occur during adolescence. • Males are afected more commonly than females. • Most lesions occur in the meta- or diaphysis of the long bones (proximal femur and tibia) although, as with osteoblastoma, spinal lesions can lead to painful scoliosis.
Osteoblastoma • Osteoblastoma is a rare benign bone tumor. • Patients often complain of intermittent episodes of pain. The clinical course is usually slow and indolent, but osteoblastomas can progress rapidly, mimicking a malignant process. • The usual age of onset is adolescence to early adulthood, but the clinical presentation is variable. • Males are affected more commonly than females.
CLINICAL SYMPTOMS • Muscle atrophy or muscle spasm. • Spinal osteoblastomas occur in the posterior elements; muscle spasm in this area can lead to a painful scoliosis.
X-RAY AP radiograph of the distal femur shows a purely lyticosteoblastoma in the epiphysis and metaphysis with mild osseous expansion but no evidence of sclerosis or mineral production
AP radiograph of the pelvis shows a densely sclerotic osteoblastoma in the left sacrum. Due to the extent of sclerosis, this lesion was initially mistaken for an osteosarcoma
Enchondroma • Enchondromas are relatively common benign intramedullary cartilaginous lesions that often are detected incidentally. • The peak age is the second decade. Half of enchondromas occur in the short tubular bones of the hands and feet followed by proximal humerus and proximal and distal femur. • Some enchondromas are painful and appear more aggressive radiographically but still display the bland, benign histology typical of asymptomatic lesions
PeriostealChondroma • Periostealchondromas are benign intracortical cartilaginous lesions. • Most patients are asymptomatic. • Lesions that become especially large may cause local mechanical • symptoms or bursitis. • Depending on the size of the lesion • and the patient’s body habitus, lesions may be palpated • on physical examination. • The majority of the patients • present within the second through the fourth decades of life
Periosteal chondroma of the proximal humerus. The lesion is arising in the cortex of the proximal humeral metadiaphysis laterally. These lesions frequently result in a concave, scalloped deformity of the cortex with a sclerotic rim along the medullary side. Some lesions have an identii able shell of bone along the soft tissue margin. They may or may not have identii able calcii ed matrix mineralization
Osteochondroma • Osteochondromas are benign cartilage capped bony projections arising from the external surface of the bone that are ot en asymptomatic. • h ey may become painful due to compression of overlying structures or due to overlying bursa formation. • Sudden pain may be due to a fracture through the stalk. Most patients present in the irst three decades. • Patients with multiple osteochondromatosis or with lesions close to physes frequently have developmental deformity. • h ere is a small (less than 1%) risk of transformation to a low-grade chondrosarcoma. • Lesions that continue to grow at er skeletal maturity and that have • cartilage caps greater than 1–2 cm should be examined carefully for malignant degeneration.
Ewing’s Sarcoma/PrimitiveNeuroectodermal Tumor (PNET) • Most patients present with local or regional pain from he lesion. • Swelling and a palpable mass may develop subsequently. • Most patients will have pain at rest or at night; signii cant mechanical or activity-related pain may herald pathologic fracture. • Many patients develop signs and symptoms of infection. • Lesions are ot en permeative with a broad zone of transition between the lesion and the surrounding bones. • Lesions typically present in the diaphysis or metadiayphisis of long bones, although l at bones such as the pelvis and scapula may also be involved.
