Osteoblastoma-like Osteosarcoma of the Proximal Tibia: A Case Report
نویسنده
چکیده
variant of osteosarcoma that may resemble osteoblastoma clinically, radiographically, and histologically and has been estimated to represent approximately 1% of osteosarcomas (1). Recently, reported involvements contain distal tibia, distal femur, proximal fibula and cuboid (1-4). To our knowledge, there has been no documented radiologic report concerning proximal tibial involvement. Radiologists might be faced with the dilemma of diagnosis whether it is giant cell tumor or other tumor, especially for patients of a young age. We report a case of MR imaging of osteoblastoma-like osteosarcoma of the proximal tibia, which was pathologically confirmed.
