Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical and X-ray characteristic findings of the cystic and expansive bone metastasis.Methods The clinical and X-ray findings of the cystic and expansive bone metastasis in 35 cases were analysed with the literaturereviewed.There were 21 males and 14 females,the age ranged from 35 to 70 years with average of 52 years.Results The bone metastasis was found 1~10 years after primary tumor diagnosed in 29 cases befor primary tumor diagnosed in 5 cases and the primary tumor did not know in one case.The primary neoplasmes included nasopharyngeal carcinoma in 10,lung carcinoma in 9,renal carcinoma in 5,breastcarcinoma in 4,thyroid carcinoma in 3,hepatic carcinoma,prostatic carcinoma,esophageal carcinoma and primary focus unknown in onerespectively.The metastatic lesions localized in the long bone in 20 cases,ribs in 4,pelvis in 4,vertebrae body in 2,scopula in 2,clavicle,metacarpal and skull in one respectively.There were 16 cystic destruction,9 expansive destruction,10 both cystic and expansive.The marginated lesions were in 27 and 8 unclear in outline of lesion was in 8.There were distruction in the bony cortex with soft tissue in 7,and sclerosis in outline of lesion in 11 and bone crest and spot clacification inside the lesions in 6.Conclusion The time of metastases occured of cystic and expansive bone metastases is depended on the differentiating degree of primary tumor cell its developmental speed.
