چکیده

We describe a unique case of a low-grade extraskeletal osteosarcoma revealing both histologic and radiologic features reminiscent of parosteal osteosarcoma. The tumor, which had been present for 10 years, occurred in the left axilla of a 74-year-old black woman. To date, all the published cases of extraskeletal osteosarcoma have been high-grade neoplasms; to our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a low-grade extraskeletal osteosarcoma.

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...

Low-grade extraskeletal osteosarcoma of the mediastinum: report of a case and review of literature.

Extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma, typically characterized by a bone-producing neoplasm. Low-grade extraskeletal osteosarcoma (LGESOS) is an extremely rare soft tissue tumor, and patients with LGESOS tend to have a better prognosis. Here, we reported a case of LGESOS of the mediastinum with lung metastasis, and describe its clinical, pathological and radiological f...
