Dougherty Part 4 Flashcards
chondrosarcoma by definition has no what
malignant bone formation
what are the types of chondrosarcomas based on calcificaiton of location
intramedullary
juxtacortical and surface
what are the types of chondrosarcoma classified histologically
conventional (hyaline and/or myxoid)
clear cell
dedifferentiated
mesenchymal
chondrosarcoma is seen in what ages
over 40
clear cell and mesenchymal occur in teens
where does chondrosarcoma affect the skeleton
pelvis, shoulder, ribs
15% of chondrosarcoma arise in what
enchondroma (higher risk with multiple enchondromas, and osteochondroma
where is clear cell chondrosarcoma found
long tubular bone epiphyses
what is seen on an X-ray of conventional chondrosarcoma
nodular growth with endosteal scalloping and flocculent densities from calcification
reactive thickened cortex bone
where does conventional chondrosarcoma metastasize to
lungs
bone
what is dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma
low-grade chondrosarcoma and high grade sarcoma
clear cell chondrosarcoma is found in what patients and where
teens/young adults
epiphysis
mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is found in what patients
teens/young adults
fibrous cortical defect affects what age group
40% of children
nonossifying fibroma is found in what age group
adolescent
where can one find fibrous cortical defects
metaphysis/cortex
knee
where can one find non ossifying fibroma
metapysis/cortex
knee
what is the size of a fibrous cortical defect
small (less than 0.5cm)
what is the size of a non ossifying fibroma
large up to 6cm
