Plain X-ray, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings of telangiectatic osteosarcoma: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
An 18-year-old male patient presented with chronic nonspecific pain of three months located at his left proximal tibia. The patient was admitted to our department for plain X-ray, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging examination. Plain X-ray and computed tomography revealed a geographic lytic lesion at the medial aspect of the proximal tibia. Biopsy of the lesion showed telangiectatic osteosarcoma. Image findings of all modalities are presented.

Letter to the Editor: Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans mimicking osteosarcoma: a case report.
Radiographs and magnetic resonance images were not published for want of space. Magnetic resonance imaging is superior to computed tomography for detection of a soft tissue mass. Hence computed tomography was not considered in our preoperative investigations. The diagnosis of osteosarcoma was not made before the biopsy. Open biopsy was performed rather than fine-needle aspiratory cytology or ne...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging of a sacral bone with telangiectatic osteosarcoma in a dog: a case report
A canine patient with osteosarcoma of the sacrum was subjected to low-field magnetic resonance imaging with the following sequences: FSE, SE, 3D HYCE, X BONE, Fast STIR, GE STIR and Gradient Echo. Due to the size and location of the tumour, surgery was not performed, and the patient was euthanized. A histopathological analysis of the tumour revealed telangiectatic osteosarcoma.
متن کاملJuvenile spondylodiscitis: the value of magnetic resonance imaging: a report of two cases.
Two boys presenting with reluctance to sit straight and stand were diagnosed with spondylodiscitis of the lumbar spine. After confirmation of the diagnosis on plain radiographs, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, they were successfully treated with antibiotics and in one case a lumbar orthosis. The use of magnetic resonance imaging is discussed and compared to the other radiolo...
متن کاملPrimary osteosarcoma of the cranial vault
Only 5-10% of osteosarcomas arise from the craniofacial bones. We report the case of a 14-year-old female patient who presented with headache and a mass that had been growing in the left frontoparietal region for six months. We describe the findings on conventional radiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
متن کاملOsteosarcoma arising from the parapharyngeal space: A case report
The current study presents a rare case of osteoblastic osteosarcoma arising from an extremely rare site, namely, the parapharyngeal space. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of an osteosarcoma in the parapharyngeal space with pathological correlation. A 56-year-old male presented with a mass of the right facial ...
