What bone tumors are found in the epiphysis?
Benign - giant cell tumor (osteoclastoma)
What bone tumors are found in the metaphysis?
Benign - osteochondroma; Malignant - osteosarcoma
What bone tumors are found in the diaphysis?
Benign - osteoid osteoma; Malignent - Ewing's sarcoma
What bone tumors are found in the intramedullary?
Benign - enchondroma; Malignant - chondrosarcoma
Disease: bone growing on bone, typically on the skull, associated with Gardner's syndrome (FAP)
Osteoma (benign)
Disease: <2 cm mass on proximal tibia and femur, typically men < 25 years of age, interlacting trabeculae of woven bone surrounded by osteoblasts
Osteoid osteoma (benign)
Disease: interlacing trabeculae of woven bone surrounded by osteoblasts, found in vertebral column
Osteoblastoma (benign)
Disease: occurs in epiphyseal ends on long bones, typically 20-40 yo, typically distal femur or proximal tibial region, 'soap bubble', spindle shaped cells with multinucleated giant cells
Giant cell tumor (benign)
Disease: long metaphysis, men < 25 yo, mature bone with cartinaginous cap
Osteochondroma - most common benign tumor; malignant transformation to chondrosarcoma is rare
Disease: cartilaginous neoplasm in intramedullary bone, usually distal extremities
Enchondroma (benign)
Disease: men 10-25 yo, metaphysis of long bones, typically around distal femur or proximal tibial region, Codman's triangle or sunburst pattern
Osteosarcoma (malignant); poor prognosis
What are the predisposing factors of osteosarcoma?
Paget's disease of bone, bone infarcts, radiation, familial retinoblastoma
Disease: small blue cell tumor, boys <15, extremely aggressive with early mets, but responds well to chemotherapy, onion-skin appearance, diaphysis of long bones pelvis scapula, and ribs
Ewing's sarcoma (malignant)
What is the genetics of Ewing's sarcoma?
11;22 translocation
Disease: cartilaginous tumor, men 30-60 yo, typically in pelvis, spine, humerus, tibia, or femur, expansile glistening mass within medullary cavity
Chondrosarcoma (malignant)
