摘要
Background: This study evaluated the clinical characteristics and imaging findings of 112 patients with irregular and flat bone osteosarcoma (IFBO). @@@ Methods: The age, gender, location, tumor size, density and signal intensity, osteoid matrix, periosteal reaction, and histological subtypes were analyzed for 112 patients with IFBO. @@@ Results: A total of 112 patients with IFBO, including 64 males and 48 females, with a mean age of 34.8 years were enrolled in this study. Over half of the tumors (54.5%) were detected in the craniofacial region and the skull (24 in the maxilla bone, 17 in the mandible bone, 11 in the sphenoid bone, 7 in the temporal bone, 1 in the frontal bone, and 1 in the occipital bone). Other tumor locations included the pelvic region (20.5%; 20 in the ilium and 3 in the pubis), the chest (18.8%; 11 in the scapula, 7 in the ribs, and 3 in the clavicle), and the vertebrae (6.3%; 3 in the thoracic spine, 2 in the lumbar spine, 1 in the sacrum, and 1 in the cervical spine). Transarticular extension occurred in 11 of the 23 pelvic cases (47.8%), primarily involving the sacroiliac joint (90.9%; 10 of 11). Six cases (6/7; 85.7%) of vertebral osteosarcoma arose from the transverse process and the pedicle, and 1 (1/7; 14.3%) arose from the sacral tuberosity and the ala, with partial vertebral body involvement. Additionally, 27 patients (24.1%) presented with secondary osteosarcoma related to prior radiotherapy, and 2 (1.8%) were associated with osteoblastoma and fibrous dysplasia. Histological examination revealed high-grade tumors in 88 (78.6%) cases. The tumors presented as soft-tissue masses with a diameter of 7.5 +/- 3.2 cm. A total of 91 patients underwent X-ray examination and/or computed tomography (CT) examinations. The osteoid matrix was detected in 84 patients (84/91;92.3%). A periosteal reaction was detected in 56 cases (56/91; 61.5%), including a lamellar periosteal reaction in 10 patients (11.0%) and a spiculated periosteal reaction in 46 cases (50.5%). All 74 cases who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations presented with heterogeneous masses in the surrounding soft tissue. Enhancement was homogenous in 12 cases (18.5%) and heterogeneous in 53 cases (81.5%). Peripheral rim enhancement was observed in 10 cases (13.5%). @@@ Conclusions: IFBO should be considered when diagnosing patients over 30 years of age who exhibit osteoid matrix in bone lesions. Maxillofacial osteosarcoma is commonly associated with a history of radiation exposure. Pelvic osteosarcoma is more likely to invade the sacroiliac joint. Vertebral osteosarcoma frequently arises in the transverse process and pedicle, with partial body involvement.
