16 - Musculoskeletal Neoplasia Flashcards
(58 cards)
Primary bony neoplasia
Neoplasia arising directly from the bone
Secondary bony neoplasia
Spread from an adjacent site
Monostrotic
Lesion affecting a single bone
Polystotic
Lesion affecting more than one bone
Diagnostics of skeletal neoplasia
CBC, serum, urinalysis
Cytology for neoplasia requires
Heavy sedation
Best to sample cytology where
Closer to center of lesion
Accuracy of cytology
70%
Tools needed for biopsy
Jamshidi and Michele trephine
Risk of biopsy
Pathological fracture, non diagnostic sample
Accuracy of biopsy
80 - 90%
Thoracic CT for lesion
1 mm
Thoracic radiographs for lesion s
7 - 9 mm in size
Most common primary bone neoplasma
Osteosarcoma
Osteosarcoma primarily affects
Appendicular skeletal
Two types of osteosarcoma
Endosteal, periosteal, parosteal
Endostteal
Most common form arises from medullary cavity
Periosteal
Can invade into medically cavity from periphery and cause bony lysis and reactive bone formation
Parosteal
Arises from periosteum, forms an expansive mass that surrounds but does not invade cortical bone
Least aggresive osteosarcoma
Parosteal
Common locations of osteosarcoma
Distal radius, distal femur, proximal tibia, proximal humerus
Radiograph of osteosarcoma
Cortical lysis, periosteal reaction, extension of osteogenesis into adjacent soft tissues, loss of trabecular pattern in metaphyseal bone
Gross metastasis at time of initial presentation :
15%
Where does osteosarcoma like to metastasis
Lungs , bones, lymph nodes
