Parosteal Osteosarcoma Arising from a Rib: Imaging Features with an Emphasis on Magnetic Resonance Imaging

نویسنده

  • WC Torreggiani
چکیده

Parosteal osteosarcomas are uncommon neoplasms that typically affect the long bones. Primary involvement of a rib is very rare. The imaging features of a parosteal osteosarcoma involving a rib are described, including the magnetic resonance imaging features, which have not been previously been reported in the literature.

Periosteal Osteosarcoma Arising from the Rib and Scapula: Imaging Features in Two Cases

Periosteal osteosarcoma is an extremely rare chondroblastic osteosarcoma in the flat bone. There were authors reporting of two cases of periosteal osteosarcoma in the highly unusual sites. One of them arose from the rib, in a 17-year-old male, which appeared as a hypodense juxtacortical mass with periosteal reaction on CT. The other one arose from the scapula, in a 17-year-old female, which sho...

Solitary synovial chondromatosis arising in the gluteus maximus bursa: computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings.

Chondral tumors in soft tissue are referred to as soft-tissue chondromas or extraskeletal chondromas, or as synovial chondromatosis if they arise in synovial tissue. We report the case of a 29-year-old man with synovial chondromatosis, also called synovial osteochondromatosis, which appeared in a solitary and extra-articular form. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography, the...

Fabrication of New 3D Phantom for Measuring Geometric Distortion in Magnetic Resonance Imaging System

  Introduction: Geometric distortion is a major shortcoming of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which has an important influence on the accuracy of volumetric measurements, an important parameter in neurology and oncology. Our goal is to design and construct a new three- dimensional phantom using a 3D printer in order to measure geometric distortion and its reproducibility in...

Bizarre Parosteal Osteochondromatous Proliferation: a case report

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP) is a benign disorder within a spectrum of reactive proliferative processes of tubular bones, particularly the phalanges of the fingers or toes. The cause is unknown, and it is difficult to distinguish BPOP from a bone or soft tissue tumor. The radiographic and magnetic resonance imaging manifestations of reported BPOP cases are mostly no...

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (Nora’s lesion) affecting the distal end of the ulna: a case report

BACKGROUND Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP), first described by Nora et al. in 1983 and therefore termed "Nora's lesion", is a rare lesion that occurs in the short bones of the hands and feet and eventually presents as a parosteal mass. Reports of BPOP in the long bones are very rare. A benign disease, BPOP does not become malignant, although a high rate of recurrence f...
