Question | Answer |

Solitary lytic or blastic in pt. over 40 suggests? | Cancer, consider metastasis and multiple myeloma |
Solitary diaphyseal lucency in any pt. suggests? | Cancer, consider leukemia and neuroblastoma in kids, and reticuloendothelial cancer in adults |
Most common skeletal cancer? | lytic metastasis |
Bilateral symmetry suggests? | normal variant |
Pt. > 40 | have cancer |
Pt. < 40 | have benign lesions, exception is teenagers |
Diffuse osteopenia is a male may be the only sign of? | multiple myeloma |
Calcified lesions are usually? | benign, except chondrosarcoma |
Thick sclerotic rim suggests? | benign lesion or fibrous lesions |
Mets favors and Myloma spares? | Pedicles |
Long lesions in long bones are usually? | fibrous |
Most common skeletal malignancy? | metastasis |
Metastasis travels via? | lymph, blood or body fluids |
Metastatic area will have what type of cancer cells? | cancer cells from the original lesion. (they are secondary lesions) |
Types and percentages of metastatic lesions? | 70% are lytic, 20% are blastic, 10% are mixed |
Most common blastic mets in men? | prostate |
Most common Blastic mets in woman? | breast |
Bacon, lettuce & tomatoe w/ketch up & pickles | Breast, lung, thyroid, kidney & prostate |
Loves the pedicles of the spine? | metastasis |
Likes the flat bones? (older people) | Metastasis |
May be the first sign of malignancy? | metastasis |
Blow out metastasis | generally associated with rapid growth cells |
Entire structure will be destroyed? | blow out metastasis |
Blow out metastasis most common from? | lung, kidney, and thyroid |
Unusual for mets? | go distal to knee or elbow |
Mets prefers... | flat bones |
If mets found distal to knee or elbow think... | lung metastasis; also kidneys or thyroid |
Mets appear as punched out lytic lesions of what size in flat bones? | varying size (ovoid, not good margins) |
Multiple myeloma will appear as punch out lytic lesions of what size in flat bones? | symmetrical (circular, sharp margins) |
Blastic mets appears... | opaque, loose (ivory vertebrae) |
metastasis commonly look | "motheaten"; poorly marginated |
multiple myeloma involves? | bone marrow |
multiple myeloma is a maligant tumor of? | plasma cells, arising from a single clone |
Multiple myeloma accounts for what percentage of primary malignant tumors of bone? | > 40% |
Most common malignant primary bone tumor? | multiple myeloma |
Multiple myeloma may arise as single intraosseous tumor called? | plasmacytoma |
plasmacytomas appear as | soap bubble lesions, not punched out |
multiple myeloma more often develops as? | multiple painful lesions throughout skeleton |
multiple myeloma findings | * M spike on serum protein electrophoresis* Diffuse osteopenia in relatively young man* Spinal osteopenia w/compression fx* Multiple lucent lesions in flat & long bone*Proteinuria=Bence Jones |
multiple myeloma likes flat bones because? | that's where bone marrow is |
Reticuloendothelial cancers | 1)leukemia 2)lymphoma 3)Multiple myeloma |
Osteosarcoma found in | teens |
malignant tumor of bone in which neoplastic osteoid is produced? | osteosarcoma |
Most common primary malignant bone tumor of mesenchymal derivation? | osteosarcoma |
how many types of osteosarcomas? | 17 |
classic type of osteosarcoma? | central osteosarcoma--found in central part of bone like the knee, hip or shoulder |
uncommon, but kills most of its victims | osteosarcoma |
deformity is common | osteosarcoma |
Osteosarcoma is a malignancy of what? | bone (osteocyte) so it is a bone forming tumor |
Osteosarcoma's periosteal reation? | spiculated or sunburst |
osteosarcoma may have what associated with it? | soft tissue mass |
Osteosarcoma's onset? | insidious |
Osteosarcoma is most common primary malignancy of bone because? | it is of the bone cells |
multiple myeloma is the most common skeletal malignancy because? | it occurs in the bone marrow |
arises in adolescents and affects males slightly more that females | osteosarcoma |
affected sites of osteosarcoma | 1)knee(distal femur or proximal tibia) in 50% of pt. 2)proximal humerus 3)proximal femur 4)pelvis |
osteosarcoma mostly occur in what part of the bone? | metaphysic |
may see what periosteal reaction with osteosarcoma? | Codman's triangle |
what is codman's triangle? | left over periosteal rxn when tumor has moved outside the bone |
chondrosarcoma | lytic distruction that doesn't cross the SI joint |
what type of tumor is chondrosarcoma? | malignant cartilaginous tumor of the bone |
Chondrosarcoma compared with osteosarcoma | less common and less aggressive |
Staging of chondrosarcoma | most often presents as a low grade-intracompartmental lesion |
slow to metastasize and may grow to immense proportions | chondrosarcoma |
typically lytic and with calcifications | chondrosarcoma |
locations of chondrosarcoma | 1)pelvis(most common) 2)femur 3)shoulder girdle |
chondrosarcoma of the femur is a secondary chondrosarcoma because... | it arises from pre-existing osteochondroma because it begins to hurt and forms a bursa. Cartilaginous cap undergoes malignant degeneration |
