Study Notes
Musculoskeletal Tumors
Periosteal Reactions
- Onion-skin (Ewing's sarcoma): more malignant
- Sunburst reaction (osteosarcoma): more malignant
- Codman's triangle: a triangle of reactive bone formation found at the proximal and distal extremes of the elevated periosteum
- Solid sunburst: less malignant
- Onion-peel (Ewing's sarcoma): more malignant
Four Questions of Enneking
- What is in the lesion?
- Clues: bone/calcific soft tissue component radiolucent/ground glass
- Matrix: osteoid/forming process, chondroid/stippled calcification, myxoid/cartilaginous
- Where is the lesion?
- Location: epiphysis, metaphysis, diaphysis
- What is the biologic activity?
- Endosteal and periosteal response: smooth periosteum (benign process), onion-skin (Ewing's sarcoma), sunburst reaction (osteosarcoma), Codman's triangle
- What is the extent of the lesion?
Biopsy
- Indications: diagnosis of musculoskeletal tumors
- Techniques: fine needle aspiration (FNA), core needle biopsy
- Considerations: appropriate staging studies, local anesthesia, ultrasonography, fluoroscopy, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Limb Salvage Versus Amputation
- Considerations: postoperative function, local control, and quality of life
- Limb salvage surgery: preferred for tumors in the proximal aspect of an extremity
- Amputation: usually provides better postoperative function and reduced risk of recurrence for tumors located in the distal leg
Rotationplasty
- Solution for disfiguring surgical resections of lower limb sarcomas
