“…[5] Isotope bone scanning is a highly sensitive means of assessing HOA; however, its findings are nonspecific and can occur with other forms of periosteal proliferation. [9,10] A bone scan was not performed in our patient, but the features of HOA were demonstrated with long bone roentgenographs. These features were bilateral, symmetrical, periosteal reactions with a laminar appearance in the femoral, tibial, ulnar and radial bones, with new periosteal bone formation in the proximal aspect of the right tibia.…”

“…Once the diagnosis of acral metastasis is confirmed, a systematic survey for disseminated metastatic disease should be performed. A Technetium bone scan is useful for determining the presence of metastatic lesions in other skeletal locations [14]. Almost 50% of patients presenting with acral metastasis have pulmonary involvement at presentation [15].…”

“…The decrease in the 201 Tl uptake ratio of the tumor before and after full course of preoperative chemotherapy correlates well with the histological response of the tumor. 5,9,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Negative 201 Tl scintigraphy after treatment is used to predict more than 90% tumor necrosis.…”

(201)Tl scintigraphy provides important information for the management of patients with bone tumors. Although the role for staging the disease of bone tumors and for differentiation of benign from malignant lesions is limited, (201)Tl scintigraphy reflects the disease activity after treatment and it should be used to determine the treatment response and for early diagnosis of recurrence. Baseline study is essential for future reference to evaluate the response to preoperative chemotherapy and to detect recurrence after surgery. Sequential (201)Tl scintigraphy before and after treatment is useful in assessing the grade of response of the tumor to chemotherapy. The early prediction of chemotherapeutic effect by (201)Tl scintigraphy during treatment will affect the management of patients who do not respond to the therapy. This is of special importance to determine whether the patient needs an amputation or a limb-salvage surgery.
