Pathology Flashcards
What Cancers is Chemo used for ?
ROPEL Rhabdomyosacroma Osteosarcoma PNET Ewings Lymphoma
Most common agents in treatment of sarcomas?
Most common agents used in the treatment of sarcomas are ifosfamide and doxorubicin
What is the most locally invasive benign soft tissue tumor?
Desmoid tumor
- Wide excision with Glevac (imatinib)
Non_Ossifying Fibroma Appearence?
Bubbly, sclerotic borders, eccesntrically based
What study will differentiate synovial chondromatosis from PVNS?
Gradient ECHO. Iron will drop out signal in PVNS
- Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath is analogous to PVNS when not intra-articular
Parosteal osteosarcoma typical location?
Posterior femur, common in females
- only wide resection if not HIGH grade, 25% invade in intramedullary canal
Sunburst or Hair on end osteosarcoma?
Periosteal sarcoma
- multiagent chemo and limb salvage
Treatment for PAgets sarcoma?
Chemotherapy, Wide resection, Reconstruction
- Will be hot on bone scan
What are also on differntial for UBC looking lesion?
ABC _lakes of blood, fibrous stroma
Telangetatic Osteosarcoma
UBC is never large (more wide) than the physis
Likely to Met to SPINE in rank order:
Breast>prostate>lung>kidney>thyroid
CD138 stain?
Myeloma
CD1A stain?
Eosinophilic granuloma
Langherhan Cell histiocytoma
CD20/CD45
Lymphoma
CD 99 Stain?
Ewings sarcoma
Herringbone pattern with pleomorphic cells?
Fibrosarcoma
Tibial diaphysis lesion?
- Adamantinoma
- Osteofibrous Dysplasia
Bowing of tibia and palpable mass is commong
Adamantinoma soap bubble appearence, sclerosis
What are most soft tissue sarcomas treated with?
Wide resection and radiotherapy
Pagets disease of bone lab findings
Elevated N-telopeptides, alpha-C-telopeptides, and urinary hydroxyproline l
What are the common primary tumors found in the spine?
- Osteoid osteoma
- Osteoblastoma
- EG
- GCT of bone
- Hemangiomas
- ABC
Hand-Shullen-Christian diesase traid
(Langerhanns cell histocytosis)- is specturm 1. EG if one lesion, HSC disease (boney and visceral), 3. Latter-siwe fatal in young
- Exopthalmosis
- Diabetes insipidus
- multiple lytic skull lesions
E
Preopertive versus Post operative radiation theraypy?
- No difference in recurrance
- Post operative usually high dose, large field therefore increase fibrosis/lymphadema
- Preoperative- increase rates of wound complications
Osteofibrous Dysplasia Tpical Pattern?
Usually anterior COrtex of Tibia
- Mild anterior bowing
- Usually in Kids less than 10
Significant change in SSEPs intra op are?
> 50% loss in amplitude
>10% increase in latency
What appears in Poland Syndrome?
Absence of sternocostal head of Pec Major
- Syndactyly, symbrachydactyly
Langheranns cells Histocutosis
CD1a stain

MHE
Enchondromatosis (olliers and mafucci)h
Vascular tumors (angiosarc cd34)
GCT expresses what Ligand
RankL
Denosumab- can help treat : RankL inhibitor
Denosumab MOA
Uses?
RANKL inhibitor
Unresectable GCT, Hypercalcemia of malignancy, osteoprosis
Schwanoma Histo SLide Look ?
Biphasic Antonia A and Antoni B
Tumors by Anatomic Location?
Tibia Tumors?
Osteofibrious Dysplasia ( young child) Adamantinoma
Osteofibrious dysplasia versus Fibrious Dysplasia ?
Osteofibrious- Anteiror tibia, Cortical rimming, OSTEOBLASTIC RIMMING
Fibrious Dysplasia- in medullary cavity, NO osteoblastic rimming
Surface Tumors ?
Osteochondroma
Periosteoal Chondroma - No bone formation on Histo and no medullary continuity
Parosteal Osteosarc
Periosteal Osteosarc
Parosteal Osteosarc?
Low grade surface tumors
Implied lower grade that Periosteal
SURGERY ONLY TUMORS
Can differentiate from osteochondroma by LACK of medullary canal continuity
Fluid Fluid Levels on Cross Section? Differential
Primary ABC
Secondary ABC
– UBC, GCT
Telangietatic Osteosarc
Differentiate between ABC versus UBC?
ABC the width of the lesion or bone is wider than the phsysis
This is not the case in UBC
