Article Abstract

Extraskeletal osteosarcoma is a rare, high-grade soft tissue malignancy, accounting for approximately 1% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Despite the histologic resemblance to osteogenic osteosarcoma, it is considered as a distinct entity because of the differences in clinical behavior and response to treatment. Hence, imaging plays a vital role in establishing the nonskeletal origin of the tumor, differentiating it from osteogenic osteosarcoma. We present F-FDG PET/CT findings in a case of isolated primary extraskeletal osteosarcoma confirmed on histopathology.

Metastatic renal osteosarcoma is a rare entity. We report a case of a 52-year-old male postright nephrectomy status presented to us with metastatic renal osteosarcoma. 18-fluorine- fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) avid lesions were seen in the right renal bed with extension to adjacent hepatic parenchyma.

Background: High-grade osteosarcoma is the most prevalent primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. Despite advancements in chemotherapy and surgical techniques, survival rates have stagnated, particularly in patients presenting with metastases or poor chemotherapeutic response. This study aims to evaluate survival outcomes and identify prognostic factors influencing overall survival in pediatric osteosarcoma patients treated at a tertiary care center.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate genotype-phenotype correlations, variant prevalence, and prognostic factors in a Chinese cohort with craniofacial FD/MAS.

Methods: A retrospective study of 93 histologically confirmed FD/MAS cases (2003-2024) analyzed GNAS mutations via direct sequencing. Clinical data, including disease onset, lesion activity (active vs.

Osteosarcoma (OS) and extraskeletal osteosarcoma (EOS) in dogs exhibit histological similarities but differ in anatomical origin, which poses a challenge to diagnostic accuracy. We adopted a marker-first strategy to enhance molecular classification by selecting RUNX2, KPNA2, and SATB2, three validated immunohistochemical (IHC) markers, as primary targets. Bioinformatic screening identified the miR-30 family as the only miRNA group predicted to coordinately regulate RUNX2, KPNA2, and SATB2, justifying its prioritization for expression analysis.

Here, we present a rare case of a 74-year-old woman with intermittent haematuria for 6 months. Computed tomography urography showed an ill-defined heterogeneously enhancing soft tissue lesion near the neck of the bladder. The patient was advised of radical cystectomy with an ileal conduit for which the patient was unwilling.
