72 y/o F presents with L knee pain: Based on the image, what is the differential?
- Multiple Myeloma
- Lymphoma
- Bone Sarcoma
- Metastatic Disease
What is the most likely diagnosis?
Multiple Myeloma
When staging a bone lesion, what should you consider?
- X-ray of entire affected bone
- Whole body bone scan (or skeletal survey)
- CT scan of chest, abdomen, and pelvis OR or PET/CT
- Serum Protein Electrophoresis /Urine Protein Electrophoresis /serum free light chains (for multiple myeloma or plasmacytoma)
- Prostatic specific antigen (for prostate adenocarcinoma)
What is the most likely disease?
Multiple Myeloma
Multiple Myeloma:
Characteristics
- A common lymphoid malignancy
- Sheets of plasma cells with atypical cell features
- Median age is 70 years
- Principally involves bone marrow and causes lytic lesions throughout skeleton
- most commonly vertebrae, ribs, skull, pelvis, femur, clavicle, & scapula
- Result in “pathologic fractures”
- Cells produce a monoclonal immuno- globulin, most often IgG
What is the most likely diagnosis?
B cell lymphoma
What is the marker that would indicate this is B cell lymphoma?
CD20
What does this image suggest?
Osteosarcoma
Osteosarcoma histology
Osteosarcoma histology
Metastatic poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, consistent origin in a primary lung adenocarinoma:
What are the markers?
-
Lung adenocarcinomas: one of four major types of lung carcinoma
- Most common type of lung cancer in woman and nonsmokers
- Metastases early (to bone, brain, and liver)
Clinical Markers
- TTF1: positive in adenocarcinomas arising in the lungs
- Cytokeratin: positive in carcinomas
Childhood lesions of bone:
- Osteochondroma
- Enchondroma
- Unicameral bone cyst
- Aneurysmal bone cyst
- Ewing sarcoma
- Osteosarcoma
10 y/o male presents with bone pain: What is the differential diagnosis?
- UBC- Unicameral Bone Cyst
- ABC- Aneurysmal Bone Cyst
- Giant Cell Tumor of Bone
- Osteosarcoma
- Ewing Sarcoma
What is the most likely diagnosis?
Unicameral Bone Cyst (UBC)
