A 57-year-old male presents with neck pain and headache. Facial nerve palsy is found on physical examination. Sagittal T1-weighted MR showed a hypointense masse measuring 5x4x4.5 cm centered in the clivus. A transoral biops was performed and showed a tumor with lobulated architecture and abundant extracellular matrix. The tumor cells show abundant, vacuolated cytoplasm. Immunohistochemistry for keratin and brachyury is positive. These findings ars most typical for
- Chondrosarcoma
- Enchondroma
- Benign notochordal cell tumor
- Chordoma
- Chondroblastoma
- Chordoma
20-year old patient with complaints of proximal humerus. Plain radiograph and axial T2-weighted (water sensitive) MR image representing a lesion. Which of the following statements is right?
- based on the age and radiographic appearance chondrosarcoma is the most likely diagnosis
- based on location, age of the patient and radiographic appearance osteosarcoma is the most likely diagnosis
- the radiographic appearance and surrounding edema on MRI (high on T2) is consistent with osteomyelitis
- the radiographic appearance and surrounding edema is consistent with chondroblastoma
- this is certainly a benign lesion because there is no soft tissue extension

- the radiographic appearance and surrounding edema is consistent with chondroblastoma
Adult patient with condroid lesion of the middle phalanx and fracture. Plain radiographs in AP and lateral direction. Which of the following statements is not valid?
- without cortical destruction and soft tissue swelling, low-grade chondrosarcoma in a phalanx is not a likely diagnosis
- enchondroma is the most commonly encountered bone tumor in a phalanx
- enchondromas in phalanges may present as lucent lesions without any calcifications
- a fracture after a minor trauma is a common presentation of an enchondroma of the hand
- MR imaging should always be performed in patients with chondroid lesions of the phalanges

- MR imaging should always be performed in patients with chondroid lesions of the phalanges
32-year old patient with pain of the left knee. Plain radiographs and axial T2-weighted MR image are shown. Which answer is right?
- based on the location and age of the patient chondroblastoma is the most likely diagnosis
- based on the location and age of the patient giant cell tumor is the most likely diagnosis
- the low signal intensity on T2 and surrounding edema (high signal) makes a diagnosis of chondroblastoma or giant cell tumor unlikely
- based on the radiographic appearance, age and MRI aneurysmal bone cyst is most likely diagnosis
- based on the radiographic lesional margins, this is certainly a malignant bone tumor

- based on the location and age of the patient giant cell tumor is the most likely diagnosis

- You do an MRI, blood tests and plan a biopsy or consult a collegue.
- It is probably a metastasis, he is in pain, so you take him to theatre to do a biopsy and put in a femoral nail
- You first ask the medical oncologist to screen him for a primary lesion, and plan him already for biopsy and femoral nailing in 2 days so he does not have to wait too long
- You do a biopsy and wait for the result before you do anything else

Betreffende wee delen tumoren van het steun- en bewegingsapparaat stelt de “richtlijn weke delen tumoren” (2004) het volgende:
- Een zwelling kan, zonder nadere diagnostiek vooraf, worden geexcideerd als deze kleiner is dan 3 centimeter, oppervlakkig van de fascie is gelokaliseerd en er geen andere alarmsignalen zijn
- Alle weke delen zwellingen die oppervlakkig liggen kunnen, zonder nadere diagnostiek vooraf, worden geexcideerd. Voorwaarde is wel dar er pathologisch onderzoek van de gereseceerde afwijking plaatsvindt zodat zo nodig aanvullende therapie kan worden ingezet
- Bij alle weke delen zwellingen dient te worden verwezen naar een gespecialiseerd centrum of overleg hiermee plaats te vinden
- Bij alle weke delen zwellingen dienst, voor excisie, radiologische en pathologische diagnostiek te worden verricht
- Van geexcideerde tumoren, kleiner dan 5 cm en oppervlakkig gelegen, hoeft geen pathologisch onderzoek te worden verricht
- Een zwelling kan, zonder nadere diagnostiek vooraf, worden geexcideerd als deze kleiner is dan 3 centimeter, oppervlakkig van de fascie is gelokaliseerd en er geen andere alarmsignalen zijn
Bij vrijwel alle hooggradige weke delen sarcomen van het steun- en bewegingsapparaat is het belangrijkste onderdeel van de behandeling:
