Bone tumors Flashcards
What are the different patterns of bone destruction (3)
- 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
What are the different patterns of periosteal reactions (5)
- Single layer: benign but sometimes malignant
- Onion skin: malignant, multiple layers of periosteum
- Sunburst: spiculated rays
- Hair on end: parallel rays
Codman triangle: triangular elevation of periosteum
Name benign bone tumors of the foot (11)

What are the characteristics of an osteoid osteoma (3)
- benign, osteolytic lesion with central nidus (<1cm) that may have calcifications
- 1st- 2nd decade of life
- dull pain, worse at night, relieved with ASA
What are characteristics of an osteoblastoma (5)
- 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.
What are some characteristics of an echondroma (4)
- benign, well defined, intramedullary, cartilaginous lesion
- geographic lesions with punctuate calcified matrix
- 3rd/4th decades of life
- painless swelling unless pathologic fractures
What is Ollier disease(3)
Multiple enchondromatosis
may become malignant
1st decade of life
What is Maffuccis disease (3)
- multiple enchondromas with soft tissue hemangiomas
- most malignant
- 1st decade of life
What are characteristics of a chondroblastoma (3)
- benign, geographic, osteolytic, lesions with sclerotic margins
- 2nd/3rd decade of life
- pain and joint effusion
What are characteristics of an osteochondroma (4)
- 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
