Surface periosteal chondroblastoma

Chondroblastoma.

PURPOSE To review all patients with chondroblastoma treated in our hospital between 1993 and 2004. METHODS Six men and 4 women aged 13 to 33 (mean, 21) years with histologically proven chondroblastomas were retrospectively reviewed through our tumour registry, patient records, radiographic and histopathologic reports. All patients underwent intralesional curettage and bone grafting with or wi...

Strain driven transport for bone modeling at the periosteal surface.

Bone modeling and remodeling has been the subject of extensive experimental studies. There have been several mathematical models proposed to explain the observed behavior, as well. A different approach is taken here in which the bone is treated from a macroscopic view point. In this investigation, a one-dimensional analytical model is used to shed light on the factors which play the greatest ro...

Chondroblastoma of the skull.

A case of chondroblastoma of the temporal bone is reported, and the pathology of the lesion outlined. The rarity of these neoplasms in the skull makes accurate prognosis impossible.

Subperiostial recurrence of chondroblastoma

We present a case of subperiosteal recurrence of chondroblastoma adjacent to the greater trochanter that was initially thought to represent septic arthritis of the hip in a 10-year-old girl. Soft-tissue recurrence of chondroblastoma is very rare, with fewer than ten cases reported in the literature. We demonstrate the recurrence on both CT and MRI. The MRI clearly demonstrates the soft-tissue r...
