1
Q

What are the different patterns of bone destruction (3)

A
  • Geographic: well-defined, short zone of transition= benign/low grade malignancy
  • Moth-eaten: more aggressive, intermediate zone of transition =benign or malignant
  • Permeative: poorly-defined, wide zone of transition =malignant

18
Q

What are the characteristics of an osteoid osteoma (3)

A
  • benign, osteolytic lesion with central nidus (<1cm) that may have calcifications
  • 1st- 2nd decade of life
  • dull pain, worse at night, relieved with ASA
19
Q

What are characteristics of an osteoblastoma (5)

A
  • Giant osteoid osteoma
  • benign tumor that may become malignant
  • osteolytic lesion with well-circumscribed nidus (>1.5 cm) that may have multiple calcifications
  • 2nd to 3rd decades of life
  • Less symptomatic than osteoid osteoma, pain not relieved by ASA.
20
Q

What are some characteristics of an echondroma (4)

A
  • benign, well defined, intramedullary, cartilaginous lesion
  • geographic lesions with punctuate calcified matrix
  • 3rd/4th decades of life
  • painless swelling unless pathologic fractures

23
Q

What are characteristics of a chondroblastoma (3)

A
  • benign, geographic, osteolytic, lesions with sclerotic margins
  • 2nd/3rd decade of life
  • pain and joint effusion
24
Q

What are characteristics of an osteochondroma (4)

A
  • most common benign primary bone tumor
  • cartilage-capped, hyperplastic bone pointing away from the joint
  • 2md/4th decades of life
  • suspect malignant transformation with growth after skeletal maturity, pain or cap >2cm
25
Q

What are characteristics of nonossifying fibromas (5)

A
  • benign connective tissue lesion with fibrous replacement of bone
  • Expansive, radiolucent medullary lesions
  • 1st/2nd decades of life
  • Lesions typically resolve with age
  • do not biopsy
26
Q

What are the characteristics of a fibrous dysplasia (3)

A
  • benign, geographic, medullary lesion with ground glass matrix
  • presents with deformity
  • sometimes painful secondary to fracture
27
Q

What are characteristics of a unicameral bone cyst (5)

A
  • benign, geographic, medullary lesion that is fluid filled
  • commonly found in calcaneus
  • fallen fragment sign: pathologic fracture in which cortex lies within lesion
  • 1st/2nd decades of life
  • asymptomatic until fracture
28
Q

What are the characteristics of an aneurysmal bone cyst (6)

A
  • benign, expansile, lytic lesion with blood-filled cavities

  • painful, especially with pathologic fractures
29
Q

What are characteristics of giant cell tumor (5)
