Parosteal osteosarcoma
-large bony mass affixed to cortical surface of long bone
-posterior distal femur most common
-histo: well-formed bone in spindled stroma (deceptively bland looking)
-lacks osteoblastic rimming
-excellent prognosis
-middle-aged female
-rad: heavily mineralized density attached to cortex, broad base wrapping around bone
-CAN dedifferentiate
looks sort of like fibrous dysplasia but FD has chinese character trabeculae and vessels in the middle
enchondroma
-benign neoplasm of hyaline cartilage
-rad: well-circ radiolucency with punctate opacities
-lobulated
-medullary cavity OR surface
-third to fifth decades
-metaphyses and diaphyses of small bones of HANDS/FEET
polyostotic enchondromas - name of syndrome
ollier's disease
-greater cellularity, larger cells
chondrosarcoma
-second most common malignant neoplasm of bone in adults
-large bones of axial skeleton (pelvis, scapula, sternum)
-rad: endosteal scalloping, cortical thickening, soft tissue mass
myxoid chondrosarcoma
-uncommon: occurs in soft tissue or bone
-histo: monotonous proliferation of uniform smallish cells with brightly acidophilic cytoplasm, cords and sheets within myxoid stroma
mesenchymal chondrosarcoma
-biphasic: well-diff cartilage and small immature mesenchymal cells
-stroma with HPC-like vessels
-highly malignant and aggressive
-often JAW bones and RIBS of YOUNG ADULTS
-rad: destructive lesion
chordoma
-low to intermediate grade
-adults, after sixth decade
-sacro-coccygeal region mostly, less often skull
-physaliphorous cells have vacuolated cytoplasm and prominent nucleoli, solid sheets/cords/single cells within abundant myxoid stroma
-moderate nuclear atypia OK, but mits infrequent
-lobulated appearance
-local & regional recurrence is high, distant mets rare
-rad: solitary, large, central, expansile lucency
in spine - cervical vertebrae most common, especially in children
MFH
-pleomorphic neoplasm of bone
-atypical spindle cells, STORIFORM pattern
-usually solitary lesion in long bones
-rad: ill-defined radiolucency
-femur, tibia, humerus and pelvis most common
non-ossifying fibroma
-benign, in KIDS
-METAPHYSIS of long bones, especially lower extremities
-rad: well-defined radiolucency with scalloped margins - metaphysis
-aka fibrous cortical defect
-no treatment required
-histo: few and irregularly dispersed giant cells
ossifying fibroma
-jaw
-third and fourth decades
-immature trabeculae with round calcific spherules - CEMENTICLES
-OSTEOBLAST rimming is present
fibrous dysplasia
-monostotic and polyostotic forms
-ribs, facial bones, long bones
-rad: intramedullary lesion, varying opacity --> "ground glass", expansile, thinning one cortex, WITHOUT soft tissue mass or periosteal reaction
-histo: fibrocellular stroma with maloriented CURVILINEAR trabeculae comprised of woven bone
-WITHOUT OSTEOBLAST rimming
-round calcified cementum-like spherules commonly seen
