Early and accurate detection of bone tumors and their staging are important since some of them are highly malignant. Intraoperative pathological consultation in bone tumors and tumor-like conditions is quite complex; however, it allows improvement in prognosis and limb salvage. Present study was conducted on 52 patients who underwent surgical procedure after clinical and radiological diagnosis ...

PURPOSE To determine the diagnostic accuracy of image-guided percutaneous biopsy in 110 primary bone tumors of varying internal compositions. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred ten consecutive patients with primary bone tumors underwent biopsy with computed tomography (CT) or fluoroscopy. Ninety-one patients underwent surgical follow-up and 19 received medical treatment and underwent subsequen...

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign tumor of bone, uncommonly affecting the maxilla, congenital, recurrent character and etiology unknown, caused by bone modeling disorder in which normal replaced immature fibrous tissue. The lesion may involve one or more bones being maxilla facial affected. We report case monostotic variety male patient complaining progressive swelling rt that compress inferior orb...

Background: Meningiomas are common benign tumors of the central nervous system. Patients with meningiomas achieve postoperative optimal functional recovery, but there is a probability of tumor recurrence months or years after surgical resection. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of recurrent meningioma and the correlation between tumor recurrence and certain factors. Materials and Meth...

conclusion our preliminary results have shown that although there is some overlap between benign and malignant tumors, adding dwi, mr imaging to routine soft tissue tumor protocols may improve diagnostic accuracy. results there was only one patient with a malignant cystic tumor and was not included in the statistical analysis. the median adc values of benign and malignant tumors were 2.31 ± 1.2...

Benign osteoblastoma is an uncommon tumor in the skull and particularly rare in the temporal bone. This article presents the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic findings of the fifth case known to involve the temporal bone, and only th second case limited to the temporal bone itself. Subtotal removal was performed following embolization of the tumor. The patient currently has no evidence of di...

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign bony lesions frequently accompanied by multiple cystic lesions and aggressive bone destruction. They are relatively rare lesions, representing only 1% of bone tumors. The pathogenesis of ABCs has yet to be elucidated. In the present study, a series of 22 cases of primary and secondary ABC from patients treated in Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Kagoshim...

Glomus jugulare is a rare slow growing tumor occurring within the jugular foramen that rarely presents with isolated symptoms. Although histologically benign, these tumors are locally destructive because of their proximity to the petrous bone, the lower cranial nerves, and the major vascular structures (Miller et al. (2009) and Silverstone (1973)). We wish to report a glomus jugulare tumor erod...
