Secondary Malignant Transformation of Giant Cell Tumor of Bone: Is It a Fate?
The malignant transformation of conventional giant cell tumor of bone (GCTOB) is rare and usually occurs with irradiation. Here we report two neglected cases of conventional GCTOB with spontaneous malignant transformation at 11 and 16 years after initial diagnosis. In the former case, the patient refused to receive any treatment following the incisional biopsy, and in the latter, the firs...
متن کاملBone marrow transplantation for non-malignant disease.
Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has emerged as a major therapeutic option for a number of nonmalignant disorders affecting the bone marrow and leading to clinical manifestations most likely affecting distant organs. Disorders such as autoimmune diseases, metabolic disorders, hemoglobinopathies, immunodeficiencies, and others have been the target of high-dose therapy and autologous or allogene...
متن کاملIntractable seizures and metabolic bone disease secondary to celiac disease.
Celiac disease (CD) is Gluten sensitive enteropathy with a wide spectrum of severity and protean clinical manifestations.

We present three young girls (ages 18, 19, 23 at presentation) who were admitted to our hospital as intractable seizures. All had low serum calcium, feature...
متن کاملSome Aspects of Calcium Metabolism in Malignant Disease of Bone.
The rate of calcification of new bone (accretion rate) was measured by a radioisotope technique in 20 patients with carcinoma of the breast, 14 patients with multiple myelomatosis, five patients with Paget's disease of bone, and in six patients with solitary, non-osseous tumours. The rate of bone destruction was assessed in these patients by the measurement of the rate of urinary calcium excret...
متن کامل18F-Fluoride PET in the Assessment of Malignant Bone Disease.
In the 1970s, 18F-labeled sodium fluoride (18F-NaF), one of the most ubiquitous positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, was briefly used for skeletal scintigraphy before the introduction of 99mTc-labeled diphosphonates with optimal characteristics for conventional g cameras (1,2). 18F-NaF is an analog of the hydroxyl group found in hydroxyapatite bone crystals and therefore an avid bone seeker ...
