  • Chondromyxoid Fibroma-Like Osteosarcoma
    Zhong et al. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders (2020) 21:53 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-020-3063-5 CASE REPORT Open Access Chondromyxoid fibroma-like osteosarcoma: a case series and literature review Jingyu Zhong1, Liping Si1, Jia Geng2, Yue Xing2, Yangfan Hu2, Qiong Jiao3, Huizhen Zhang3 and Weiwu Yao1* Abstract Background: Chondromyxoid fibroma-like osteosarcoma (CMF-OS) is an exceedingly rare subtype of low-grade central osteosarcoma (LGCO), accounting for up to 10% of cases and making it difficult to diagnose. CMF-OS is frequently misdiagnosed on a radiological examination and biopsy, even after the initial operation. Its treatment is a controversial issue due to its low-grade classification and actual high-grade behavior. Case presentation: We retrospectively reviewed the medical charts of more than 2000 osteosarcoma patients between 2008 and 2019; 11 patients with CMF-OS were identified, of which six patients were treated by our institution with complete clinical characteristics, including treatment and prognosis, radiological and pathological features were reviewed. Three males and three females with a median age of 46 (range 22–56) years were pathologically proven to have CMF-OS. The radiological presentation of CMF-OS is variable, thus radiological misdiagnoses are common. However, one must not ignore a malignant radiologic appearance. The most distinctive pathological feature conferring the diagnosis of CMF-OS is the presence of osteoid production directly by the tumor cells under a chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF)-like background. Differential diagnoses based on comprehensive data from CMF, LGCO, chondrosarcoma (CHS), conventional osteosarcoma (COS), etc., are needed. All patients were treated with an operation and chemotherapy, and one patient received additional radiotherapy.

(e-mail: [email protected]). Abstract Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) is an exceedingly rare tumor that represents less than 1% of all primary bone neoplasms. Occurrence in the facial and cranial bones is extremely rare and frequently misdiagnosed. Case Reports We report two cases of CMF, one in the sphenoclival skull base and the other involving the parietal bone in two young female patients. Excision was performed in both cases. Presenting symptoms, treatment, and follow-up are reported. Methods A retrospective review of the literature on cranial CMF was performed. The location, demographics, presenting symptoms, and treatment of all calvarial and skull base CMF cases published since 1990 are summarized. Discussion In our literature review, we found 67 published cases of cranial CMF. Mean age of all calvarial and skull base CMFs at diagnosis was 38.2 years old. Of the cases Keywords affecting the cranium, the sinonasal structures were most commonly involved. To our ► benign knowledge we report only the second case of CMF involving the parietal bone published ► bone neoplasms in an English-language journal.

  • Craniofacial Chondrosarcomas: Imaging Findings in 15 Untreated Cases
    165 Craniofacial Chondrosarcomas: Imaging Findings in 15 Untreated Cases Ya-Yen Lee1 Radiographic findings of 15 untreated chondrosarcomas of the cranial and facial Pamela Van Tassel bones were reviewed. These tumors have a propensity to occur in the wall of a maxillary sinus, at the junction of sphenoid and ethmoid sinuses and vomer, and at the undersur­ face of the sphenoid bone. Because of its slow-growing nature, chondrosarcomas tend to be large, multi lobulated, and sharply demarcated when detected. Frequent bone changes are a combination of erosion and destruction, with sharp transitional zones and absent periosteal reaction. Tumor matrix calcifications, not necessarily chondroid, are almost always present. Both CT and MR may be necessary for thorough evaluation of tumor extent. Chondrosarcoma, a malignant but usually slow-growing cartilaginous tumor, constitutes approximately 11 % of malignant bone tumors [1] but rarely occurs in the craniofacial region . Because of its propensity to occur in the deep facial structures or base of the skull, the true extent and origin of the tumor may be overlooked if not properly evaluated radiographically. We review a relatively large series of craniofacial chondrosarcomas and discuss the differential diagnosis and choice of imaging technique. Materials and Methods This retrospective radiologic review was based on the pretreatment radiographic studies of 15 patients with craniofacial chondrosarcomas seen at our institution over a period of 40 years , excluding three intracranial dural chondrosarcomas, which are to be reported sepa­ rately. An attempt was also made to correlate the radiographic findings with the hi stologic grades of the tumors. The ages of the patients ranged from 10 to 73 years , with a mean of 40 years.

Multiple spinal lesions frequently represent known metastatic disease or lymphoproliferative disease. In solitary lesions primary neoplasms of the spine should be considered. Primary spinal tumors may arise from the spinal cord, the surrounding leptomeninges, or the extradural soft tissues and bony structures. A wide variety of benign neoplasms can involve the spine including enostosis, osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma, aneurysmal bone cyst, giant cell tumor, and osteochondroma. Common malignant primary neo- plasms are chordoma, chondrosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma or primitive neuroectodermal Keywords tumor, and osteosarcoma. Although plain radiographs may be useful to characterize ► spinal tumor some spinal lesions, magnetic resonance imaging is indispensable to determine the ► extradural tumor extension and the relationship with the spinal canal and nerve roots, and thus determine ► magnetic resonance the plan of management. In this article we review the characteristic imaging features of imaging extradural spinal lesions.
