Purpose.To review all patients with chondroblastoma treated in our hospital between 1993 and 2004. Methods. Six men and 4 women aged 13 to 33 (mean, 21) years with histologically proven chondroblastomas were retrospectively reviewed through our tumour registry, patient records, radiographic and histopathologic reports. All patients underwent intralesional curettage and bone grafting with or without bone cement. The mean follow-up period was 5.5 (range, 2-11.8) years. Functional outcome was measured according to the Enneking scoring system. Results. The proximal tibia and femur were the most frequently involved sites. All patients presented with pain but only 2 with joint effusion. In 3 patients the lesions were aggressive, in 3 others it was active, and in 4 it was latent. In 2 patients the lesions recurred at 5 and 28 months; both resolved after repeat surgeries without further recurrence. Functional outcomes were either good or excellent, except for one patient with a compartment syndrome of the contralateral leg. No patients had metastasis to lungs or collapse of articular surfaces. Conclusion. Chondroblastoma is a rare benign bone Chondroblastoma IE Garin, EHM WangMusculoskeletal Tumor Unit, Department of Orthopedics, Philippine General Hospital, University of the Philippines, Manila, Philippines Address correspondence and reprint requests to: Dr Edward HM Wang, Musculoskeletal Tumor Unit, Department of Orthopedics, Philippine General Hospital, University of the Philippines, Manila 1000.

Diagnostic Studies of Pediatric Bone Tumors: Pathology and Imaging

2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The unique pattern of distribution of bone tumors and the nature of their interaction with native bone creates distinct radiologic-pathologic correlates that are critical in the diagnostic evaluation of these lesions. The rarity of these lesions makes them especially daunting for the general pathologist and radiologist faced with the diagnostic evaluation of these entities. This chapter presents a richly illustrated synopsis of common pediatric bone lesions based on a rational integrated approach incorporating the gross anatomy of the lesions (via radiologic imaging) and pathologic analysis. This chapter presents entities and their mimics based on their anatomic location within the bone just as they
