Q

How do you tell Giant Cell Tumors from Chondroblastomas.

A

Chondroblastoma

  • Epiphysis before growth plate closes (young).
  • May have sclerotic margin
  • May have calcification

Giant Cell Tumor

  • After growth plate closure (20-40)
  • No calcification or sclerotic margin.
  • Mostly in metaphysis, but extends into epiphysis.
