1. The document discusses several skeletal developmental and genetic disorders including osteogenesis imperfecta, as well as metabolic bone diseases such as osteoporosis, renal osteodystrophy, osteomalacia, rickets, and hyperparathyroidism.
2. Inflammatory bone disorders including osteomyelitis, sarcoidosis, Paget's disease of bone, and osteonecrosis are described. Trauma and fracture repair processes are also summarized.
3. Several primary bone tumors are discussed including osteoid osteoma, osteosarcoma, chondroma, osteochondroma, and chondroblastoma.
53. MULTIPLE CHONDROMAS IN OLLIER’S DISEASE. The left hand of this 27-year-old man contains multiple deforming chondromas.
54. MULTIPLE CHONDROMAS. The tumors involve the bones of the second and third rays with sparing of the joint spaces.
55. MAFFUCCI’S SYNDROME. Left – multiple benign cartilage tumors involve the metacarpals and phalanges of the first to third digits. Soft tissue swelling and masses with calcified phleboliths are compatible with soft tissue hemangiomas. Right – Coronal short tau inversion recovery image shows multiple high signal intensity lesions in phalanges of the 2 nd and 3 rd digits and 2 nd metacarpal consitent with enchondromas. The small soft tissue mass in the 2 nd digit and serpigenous vessels in the 2 nd and 3 rd digits are compatible with hemangiomas.
65. This chondroblastoma arising from the temporal bone contains areas of spindled mononuclear cells, hemosiderin deposition , and multinucleated giant cells.
76. The tumor arose in the sternum. It has a characteristic gray-blue appearance, is lobulated and has a chalky-white calcific deposits. Cartilage tumors at this site are almost always malignant.
