The ultrasonographic characteristics of different bone tumors were studied and compared with the results of pathologic characters after operation. Ultrasonography can readily visualize the bony destruction and the pathologic change of the periosteum and the soft tissue related to bone tumor. Fifty-two cases of malignant bone tumors and 15 cases of giant cell tumors were diagnosed by ultrasonography. Pathologically, there were 54 cases of malignant bone tumor and 13 cases of giant cell tumor. It was concluded that ultrasonographic examination might be a useful method for the diagnoses of bone tumor of the knee and play an important role in guiding needle biopsy and electing operative method and approach.展开更多

The treatment modalities for bone tumors vary with the individual lesion, but in general surgical excision is the treatment of choice with other adjunctive therapies. However, surgery for many bone tumors is complex due to several factors including tumor bulk, vascularity, vicinity to vital structures and potentially inaccessible location of the lesion. Transarterial Embolisation (TAE) is one of the important adjuvant treatment modalities and in some cases it may be the primary and curative treatment. Preoperative TAE has proved to be effective in both primary and metastatic bone tumors. It reduces tumor vascularity and intraoperative blood loss, the need for blood transfusion and associated complications, allows better definition of tissue planes at surgery affording more complete excision, and hence reduced recurrence. Preoperative chemoEmbolisation has also been shown to increase the sensitivity of some tumors to subsequent chemotherapy and radiotherapy. There are several techniques and embolic agents available for this purpose, but the ultimate aim is to achieve tumor devascularization. In this review, we discuss the techniques including the choice of embolic agent, application to individual lesions and potential complications.展开更多

The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic potential of MR-PWI conjunction with MR-DWI in differentiat-ing benign from malignant bone tumors. Methods: MR-PWI and MR-DWI were performed on 39 patients by using a 1.5 T MR imager. Perfusion imaging was started with GRE-EPI sequence as soon as the bolus administration commenced. With b value as 300s/mm2,diffusion imaging was performed with SE-EPI sequence. Type of TIC,peak enhancement,steepest slope,signal difference between 2 baselines and ADC were compared between benign and malignant bone tumors. The data were analyzed with soft-ware (SPSS,version 13.0). Subjective overall performance of two techniques was evaluated with Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis. Results: 1. MR-PWI: (1) The Patterns of TIC of most benign bone tumors (17/21) were type I and Ⅱ,and all malignant bone tumors were type Ⅲ and IV. (2) There were significant differences in peak enhancement (17.52 ± 2.37 vs. 52.42 ± 5.74) %,steepest slope (4.69 ± 2.84 vs. 9.63 ± 4.05)%/s and signal difference between 2 baselines (6.87 ± 3.34 vs. 31.75 ± 11.09) % between benign and malignant groups. And their diagnosis accuracy was 82.1%,79.5% and 87.2%,respectively. (3). 4 highly vascularized benign bone tumors were mistaken in diagnosis as ma-lignant ones according to their perfusion characteristics. 2. MR-DWI: There was significant difference between ADC of benign and malignant groups [(1.86±0.38) vs. (1.44±0.26)]×10-3 mm2/s when b value was 300 s/mm2. The diagnosis accuracy was 79.5% when ADC value less than 1.63×10-3 mm2/s was considered as malignant ones. 3. The diagnosis accuracy of MR-PWI and MR-DWI were 89.7% and 79.5%,respectively. Conclusion: MR-PWI is the better valuable technique than MR-DWI in differentiation benign from malignant bone tumors. To suspicious highly vascularized bone tumors,MR-PWI combining with MR-DWI lead to higher diagnosis accuracy.展开更多

The labeling condition, stability, mole ratio of 153Sm to TTHMP, rabbit bone imaging and bio-distribution of 153Sm-TTHMP in mice were investigated. The results showed that weak basic media and high concentration ligands were favorable to form 153Sm-TTHMP; labeling compounds were stable at pH 7 in 7 days. The results also indicated that the chemical mole ratio of 153Sm-TTHMP is n(153Sm)﹕n(TTHMP) = 1﹕1 and skeleton uptake of 153Sm-TTHMP is high((13.96(3.51)%/g at 1h post injection and (13.54(2.98)%/g at 48h post injection), while the non-target tissue uptake is relatively low, so 153Sm-TTHMP is a promising bone tumor therapeutic agent.展开更多

Fragmented DNA is analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Experimental observations show that 153Sm-EDTMP exposure induces the internucleosomal DNA damage in bone tumor cells the DNA ladder pattern formation in bone tumor cells is shown. At the same time, the microautoradiographic study indicates that 153Sm-EDTMP could permeate through cell membrane and displays membrane-seeking condensation in bone tumor cells. Soon afterwards 153Sm-EDTMP could be phagocytized by the tumor cells and distributed ill cytoplasm as well as nucleus in the form of phagosome. With the prolongation of observing time, the membrane-bounded apoptotic bodies are observed.展开更多

Aim: No comprehensive surveillance data about primary malignant bone tumors is available from this region of West Bengal in the literature. An attempt is undertaken to correlate clinicopathological findings, both histological & cytological features of primary bone tumours. Method: This observational study of clinical presentation was corroborated with cytology and histopathology of 67 cases of primary malignant bone tumors in 2005-2007 in a tertiary health care centre. Results: Among the primary malignant tumors, 39 cases (58.20%) were male and 28 (41.80%) were female. Sixty one lesions (91%) were located in the long bones and 6 (9%) involving flat and short bones. Osteosarcomas are found to be the predominant primary malignant bone tumors (44.77%), followed by Ewing’s sarcomas (20.89%), chondrosarcomas (13.43%), high grade giant cell tumor, and plasmacytoma (5.97%). Predilection for male (M: F 2:1) found in both osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma, but it was reverse in cases of Ewing’s sarcomas. Conclusion: Osteosarcoma is the most common around knee joint and chondrosarcoma is frequent in long bones in this region. We made an attempt to correlate FNAC findings with the histopathology and it was seen that overall sensitivity of FNAC of primary malignant bone tumors was 56.71%.展开更多

The network consists of distinct feature encoding and decoding stages, with dual-pooling modules employed in encoding stages to maintain the background information needed for bone scintigrams diagnosis. Both the DAC and RMP modules are utilized in the bottleneck layer to address the multi-scale problem of metastatic lesions. Experimental evaluations on 306 clinical SPECT data have demonstrated that the proposed method showcases a substantial improvement in both DSC and Recall scores by 3.28% and 6.55% compared the baseline. Exhaustive case studies illustrate the superiority of the methodology.展开更多

They are of unknown exact etiology, but it is suggested that it is due to abnormal tissue migration during early embryonic development. Nasal dermoid cysts albeit rare, can present in various forms such as sinuses, fistulas, or intracranially extending tracts. They can be asymptomatic and incidentally discovered or present with a visible external mass or sinus that is either painful, infected or cosmetically concerning. If nasal dermoid cysts with an intra-nasal bone sinus tract are left untreated, they can lead to life-threatening complications. This report describes the case of a 6-year-old girl with a nasal dermoid cyst connected to a superficial punctum by an intra-nasal tract. She had undergone surgical excision of a nasal swelling previously diagnosed as a dermoid cyst. One year later, she returned to our clinic with a recurrence of the nasal swelling. Imaging tests revealed a nasal dermoid cyst with a tract extending to the nasal tip, without intracranial expansion. The cyst, along with the entire tract, was successfully removed surgically, and the postoperative follow-up indicated no complications. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of a dermoid cyst. This case underscores the significance of considering the dermoid tract in nasal cyst cases and the necessity of its complete removal to prevent recurrence.展开更多

文摘AIM:To study the safety and effectiveness of preoperative embolization of primary bone tumors in relation to intraoperative blood loss,intraoperative blood transfusion volume and surgical time.METHODS:Thirty-three patients underwent preoperative embolization of primary tumors of extremities,hip or vertebrae before resection and stabilization.The primary osseous tumors included giant cell tumors,aneurysmal bone cyst,osteoblastoma,chondroblastoma and chondrosarcoma.Twenty-six patients were included for the statistical analysis(embolization group)as they were operated within 0-48 h within preoperative embolization.A control group(non-embolization group,n = 28)with bone tumor having similar histological diagnosis and operated without embolization was retrieved from hospital record for statistical comparison.RESULTS:The mean intraoperative blood loss was 1300 mL(250-2900 mL),the mean intraoperative blood transfusion was 700 m L(0-1400 m L)and the mean surgical time was 221 ± 76.7 min for embolization group(group Ⅰ,n = 26).Non-embolization group(group Ⅱ,n = 28),the mean intraoperative blood loss was 1800 m L(800-6000 m L),the mean intraoperative blood transfusion was 1400 mL(700-8400 mL)and the meansurgical time was 250 ± 69.7 min.On comparison,statistically significant(P < 0.001)difference was found between embolisation group and non-embolisation group for the amount of blood loss and requirement of blood transfusion.There was no statistical difference between the two groups for the surgical time.No patients developed any angiography or embolization related complications.CONCLUSION:Preoperative embolization of bone tumors is a safe and effective adjunct to the surgical management of primary bone tumors that leads to reduction in intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion volume.
文摘TCTMP ( 1,4,8,11-tetraaza cyclotetradecyl- 1,4,8,11-tetramethylene phosphonate) was synthesized and coupled with 188Re. The 188Re-TCTMP's coupling condition, stability and bio-distribution in mice were investigated.The results showed that satisfactory yield of 188Re could be obtained under the conditions of media pH=2.0, 0.8~1.6 mg of SnCl2 and 50 mg of ligand. 188Re-TCTMP was stable (complexation yield >95%) in 8 d without protection of N2. The result of bio-distribution indicated that 188Re-TCTMP had a strong affinity to skeleton and very low non-target tissue's uptake, and the amount of 188Re-TCTMP in blood was (0.06±0.02)%ID/g 6 h after injection,whereas the concentration of 188Re-HEDP (1-hydroxy-ethylidene diphosphonate) in blood was (0.28±0.05)%ID/g 6 hafter injection. Compared with 188Re-HEDP, 188Re-TCTMP exhibits better potential for the treatment of metastases.
文摘The types of DNA content ean be divided into four groups:(1)diploids andnera-diploids;(2)triploids;(3)tetraploidy and hyperploidy aneuploids;(4)biclonal DHAcontent.Recent studies show that measuring DNA content by flow cytometry(FCM) can beapplied to most primary bone lumors in pointing out clinicatly relevant informattons.Ii thisstudy,cellular DHA content of 33 primary bone tvenors was analysed by FCM Isolated ratcle-ar suspensions were prepared by a simple,rapid and effective method using 10% formatin-fctedand paraffin-embeuded bone tumor specimens.The results showed that 10 benign(inchtding 5Grade I giant cell tumors of bone) and 5 histologically questionable tumors had nornufl DNAcontent (diploids or near-diploids)and the other 7 questionable and of the 11 malignanttumors had abnormul DNA content(aneuploids).The cell cycle distribution analysis showedthat the aneuploidy tumors had higher proponion of S-phase and G2+M-phase cells than the nor-mal ploidy tumors,indicating there were differences in proliferative activity.The method alsoshowed that beniga and low-malignant primary bone tumors were diploids or near-diptoids,andhigh-malignant cnes were aneuploids Compared with typically pathological grading,the flowDNA analysis of bone tumors can more objectively point out their biological behavior andprognosis.
文摘TTHMP (triethylenetetraaminehexamethylenephosphonic acid) was labeled with 153Sm. The labeling condition, stability, mole ratio of 153Sm to TTHMP, rabbit bone imaging and bio-distribution of 153Sm-TTHMP in mice were investigated. The results showed that weak basic media and high concentration ligands were favorable to form 153Sm-TTHMP; labeling compounds were stable at pH 7 in 7 days. The results also indicated that the chemical mole ratio of 153Sm-TTHMP is n(153Sm)﹕n(TTHMP) = 1﹕1 and skeleton uptake of 153Sm-TTHMP is high((13.96(3.51)%/g at 1h post injection and (13.54(2.98)%/g at 48h post injection), while the non-target tissue uptake is relatively low, so 153Sm-TTHMP is a promising bone tumor therapeutic agent.
文摘The apoptosis in bone tumor cells is studied after 153Sm-EDTMP irradiation. Fragmented DNA is analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Experimental observations show that 153Sm-EDTMP exposure induces the internucleosomal DNA damage in bone tumor cells the DNA ladder pattern formation in bone tumor cells is shown. At the same time, the microautoradiographic study indicates that 153Sm-EDTMP could permeate through cell membrane and displays membrane-seeking condensation in bone tumor cells. Soon afterwards 153Sm-EDTMP could be phagocytized by the tumor cells and distributed ill cytoplasm as well as nucleus in the form of phagosome. With the prolongation of observing time, the membrane-bounded apoptotic bodies are observed.
文摘Background: Primary malignant tumors arising from bone are uncommon but important malignant neoplasms which account for 0.2% of all primary cancers in adults and approximately 5% of all childhood malignancies. Aim: No comprehensive surveillance data about primary malignant bone tumors is available from this region of West Bengal in the literature. An attempt is undertaken to correlate clinicopathological findings, both histological & cytological features of primary bone tumours. Method: This observational study of clinical presentation was corroborated with cytology and histopathology of 67 cases of primary malignant bone tumors in 2005-2007 in a tertiary health care centre. Results: Among the primary malignant tumors, 39 cases (58.20%) were male and 28 (41.80%) were female. Sixty one lesions (91%) were located in the long bones and 6 (9%) involving flat and short bones. Osteosarcomas are found to be the predominant primary malignant bone tumors (44.77%), followed by Ewing’s sarcomas (20.89%), chondrosarcomas (13.43%), high grade giant cell tumor, and plasmacytoma (5.97%). Predilection for male (M: F 2:1) found in both osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma, but it was reverse in cases of Ewing’s sarcomas. Conclusion: Osteosarcoma is the most common around knee joint and chondrosarcoma is frequent in long bones in this region. We made an attempt to correlate FNAC findings with the histopathology and it was seen that overall sensitivity of FNAC of primary malignant bone tumors was 56.71%.
文摘This paper reviews the imaging appearance of benign and malignant bone tumors of the maxillofacial region.A benign bone tumor commonly appears as a well circumscribed lesion.The matrix of the tumor may be calcified or sclerotic.Malignancies often display aggressive characteristics such as cortical breakthrough, bone destruction,a permeative pattern and associated soft-tissue masses.Computed tomography scan is an excellent imaging modality for accurate localization of the lesion,characterization of the tumor matrix and detection of associated osseous changes such as bone remodeling,destruction or periosteal reaction.Magnetic resonance imaging is of limited value in the evaluation of maxillofacial bone tumors.

文摘BACKGROUND Giant cell tumor of bone is a locally aggressive and rarely metastasizing tumor,and also a potential malignant tumor that may develop into a primary malignant giant cell tumor.AIM To evaluate the role of multimodal imaging in the diagnosis of giant cell tumors of bone.METHODS The data of 32 patients with giant cell tumor of bone confirmed by core-needle biopsy or surgical pathology at our hospital between March 2018 and March 2023 were retrospectively selected.All the patients with giant cell tumors of the bone were examined by X-ray,computed tomography(CT)and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),and 7 of them were examined by positron emission tomography(PET)-CT.RESULTS X-ray imaging can provide overall information on giant cell tumor lesions.CT and MRI can reveal the characteristics of the internal structure of the tumor as well as the adjacent relationships of the tumor,and these methods have unique advantages for diagnosing tumors and determining the scope of surgery.PET-CT can detect small lesions and is highly valuable for identifying benign and malignant tumors to aid in the early diagnosis of metastasis.CONCLUSION Multimodal imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis of giant cell tumor of bone and can provide a reference for the treatment of giant cell tumors.
文摘In order to enhance the performance of the CNN-based segmentation models for bone metastases, this study proposes a segmentation method that integrates dual-pooling, DAC, and RMP modules. The network consists of distinct feature encoding and decoding stages, with dual-pooling modules employed in encoding stages to maintain the background information needed for bone scintigrams diagnosis. Both the DAC and RMP modules are utilized in the bottleneck layer to address the multi-scale problem of metastatic lesions. Experimental evaluations on 306 clinical SPECT data have demonstrated that the proposed method showcases a substantial improvement in both DSC and Recall scores by 3.28% and 6.55% compared the baseline. Exhaustive case studies illustrate the superiority of the methodology.
文摘Dermoid cysts are benign tumors originating from germ cells, which can form in various locations, including the nasal area in rare cases. They are of unknown exact etiology, but it is suggested that it is due to abnormal tissue migration during early embryonic development. Nasal dermoid cysts albeit rare, can present in various forms such as sinuses, fistulas, or intracranially extending tracts. They can be asymptomatic and incidentally discovered or present with a visible external mass or sinus that is either painful, infected or cosmetically concerning. If nasal dermoid cysts with an intra-nasal bone sinus tract are left untreated, they can lead to life-threatening complications. This report describes the case of a 6-year-old girl with a nasal dermoid cyst connected to a superficial punctum by an intra-nasal tract. She had undergone surgical excision of a nasal swelling previously diagnosed as a dermoid cyst. One year later, she returned to our clinic with a recurrence of the nasal swelling. Imaging tests revealed a nasal dermoid cyst with a tract extending to the nasal tip, without intracranial expansion. The cyst, along with the entire tract, was successfully removed surgically, and the postoperative follow-up indicated no complications. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of a dermoid cyst. This case underscores the significance of considering the dermoid tract in nasal cyst cases and the necessity of its complete removal to prevent recurrence.
