Lesions of juxtacortical origin (surface lesions of bone)

et al. 1993

A large variety of tumor and tumor-like conditions have been shown to originate from the surface of bone (Table 1). Most surface lesions are associated with periosteal reaction. The periosteum is a multipotential membrane. Its cellular composition may give rise to a variety of both neoplasms and tumor-like conditions. To avoid misinterpretation, the orthopedist, radiologist, and pathologist should be familiar with the entire spectrum of surface lesions. A better understanding of the natural history and biological behavior at different lesional maturity stages and correlation of the history with the radiographic and pathological findings is essential to establish the correct diagnosis. A history of injury or blunt trauma is very important. A stress fracture may produce a periosteal reaction acd callus that can be difficult to distinguish from osteosarcoma. In this review article, the authors wish to describe and define each term by its anatomy and radiographic features while discussing the entire spectrum of surface lesions. All the illustrative cases in this review article have been proven histologically.

“…Overhanging edges are seen at the margin which may completely or partially encircle the lesion. A visible soft tissue mass with associated chondroid matrix is seen in about 50% of cases and is more commonly associated with small lesions of the hands and feet (deSantos and Spjut 1981;Robbin and Murphey 2000). CT and MRI are useful in demonstrating the presence of an outer periosteal shell, soft tissue mass and calcified matrix.…”

“…The lesion is most common in males usually presenting in the second decade of life but the age range is broad (de Santos and Spjut 1981). While the lesion most commonly affects the metaphyses or metadiaphyses of the long bones, between 25 and 29% involve the hands and feet (deSantos and Spjut 1981;Boriani et al 1983).…”

“…Among these 65 cases, the precise anatomical site in the phalanges was indicated in 22 cases, 4,6,12,22,24,27,[29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] and ten of them had the lesion in the flexor tendon sheath. 6,12,22,24,[29][30][31][32][33] These findings indicate that finger phalanges, especially the volar aspect, are a common site for periosteal chondromas. However, there is a general lack of literature describing periosteal chondroma; we could find only one report where the patient required surgery because of finger dysfunction.…”
