Molecular Markers in Diagnostic Paediatric Bone Lesions
Molecular pathology has become an essential adjunct in the realm of diagnostic histopathology. While gains in this field have been enjoyed in many areas, their impact has arguably been greatest felt in bone and soft tissue pathology. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the emerging role of molecular techniques in the context of paediatric bone pathology, discussing select syndromic and ne...
متن کاملDiagnostic and prognostic validity of serum bone turnover markers in bone metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients
The incidence of bone metastases (BM) in advanced non-smallcell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients is estimated to range from 30% to 40% [1,2]. The presence of BM often results in pathologic remodeling of the affected bone compartment, making affected bones vulnerable to skeletal related events (SREs). SREs include pathologic fractures, spinal cord compression, requirement for radiation, surgery to b...
متن کاملDiagnostic and prognostic use of bone turnover markers.
The use of bone turnover markers in oncology includes monitoring of anticancer treatment in patients with malignant disease metastatic to the bones (therapeutic monitoring), predicting the risk of bone relapse in patients with a first diagnosis of potentially curative, early-stage malignant tumors (prognostic use), and making an early diagnosis of (microscopic) malignant bone disease in patient...
متن کاملClinical Value of the Biochemical Markers of Bone Remodeling in the Assessment of Bone Metabolic Diseases
In clinical practice, low bone mineral densi ty (BMD) and, therefore, scarcity of bone mineral is identified and quantified by dual energy X-ray absorptio-metry (DXA) (1). However, BMD predicts only 66Ê74% of variance of the bone strength (2), and many individuals with normal areal BMD suffer fractures (3). It is well recognized that other aspects of bone composition and structure may contribut...
متن کاملUsefulness of Bone Metabolic Markers in the Diagnosis of Bone Metastasis from Lung Cancer
Bone metastasis is common in lung cancer patient and the diagnosis of bone metastasis is usually made by using imaging techniques, especially bone scintigraphy. However, the diagnostic yield from bone scintigraphy is limited. The aim of this study is to assess the clinical usefulness of urinary pyridinoline cross-linked N-telopeptides of Type I collagen (NTx), urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD), a...
