Pediatric bone and soft-tissue sarcomas
In this session I will review the clinical and imaging features of the most common pediatric bone and soft tissue sarcomas and several benign lesions that may mimic them. These malignancies often have unique features that can help narrow the differential diagnosis. The material will be presented in an informal manner and audience participation is encouraged. A review of the appropriate diagnost...
متن کاملPediatric nonrhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas.
The nonrhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTSs) are a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal cell neoplasms that account for about 4% of childhood cancers. Because each histologic subtype of NRSTS is rare, they have been poorly studied and little is known about their biology, natural history, or optimal treatment. Data from adults with soft tissue sarcomas provide some helpful insight, but ad...

The development of a new soft tissue lesion in an otherwise healthy child, adolescent, or young adult can present many challenges for pediatric or medical oncology teams. Although uncommon, the diagnosis of a soft tissue malignancy should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of persistent pain, even if no mass is palpable. The definitive diagnosis and treatment of a soft tissue ma...

Sarcomas represent a clinically and biologically diverse group of malignant connective tissue tumors. Despite aggressive conventional therapy, a large proportion of sarcoma patients experience disease recurrence which will ultimately result in mortality. The presence of a unique population of cells, referred to as cancer stem cells (CSCs), have been proposed to be responsible for refractory res...
