Name the benign bone forming tumors
osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma, osteoma
Name the benign cartilage forming tumors
chondroma, osteochondroma, chondroblastoma
name the benign fibrous bone lesions
fibrous dysplasia, nonossifying fibroma
name the benign radiolucent bone lesions
giant cell tumor, unicameral bone cyst, aneurysmal bone cyst
what’s the most common benign osteoid forming tumor?
osteoid osteoma
peak incidence of osteoid osteoma
2nd decade of life (10-30 yrs)
gender more affected by osteoid osteoma
men
location of osteoid osteoma
anywhere, but most common in long bones– proximal femur
CM of osteoid osteoma
pain; NIGHT PAIN; pain relieved with NSAIDs
pathophysiology of osteoid osteoma
neoplastic changes vs inflammatory osteoblasts
radiographic findings of osteoid osteoma
small, <1 cm lytic nidus with surrounding sclerosis; “hot” on bone scan; use CT scan to localize the lesion
Tx of osteoid osteoma
pain control/suppression with NSAIDs; if fail medical management curettage/burring to get rid of nidus, radiofrequency ablation
Prognosis of osteoid osteoma
excellent, local recurrence is rare
what’s an osteoblastoma?
large osteoid osteoma, >2 cm, more aggressive
how common is an osteoblastoma?
are, 1% of benign bone tumors
Age for osteoblastoma
1st to 3rd decade
males or females for osteoblastoma?
males
Location of osteoblastoma
posterior spine, long bones (femur, tibia)
presentation of osteoblastoma
pain, unresponsive to NSAIDs
radiographic appearance of osteoblastoma
variable, lucent, slightly expansible, no sclerotic rim, >2 cm, no nidus
Tx of osteoblastoma
biopsy, curettage and bone grafting, tumor excision with bone reconstruction vs. internal fixation
prognosis of osteoblastoma
excellent, low recurrence rate
what’s an osteoma?
deposition of reactive periosteal new bone
age for osteoma?
2nd to 4th decade
