Abstract:
Objective To investigate the X-ray,CT and MRI features of chondroblastoma (CB)and to improve diagnostic skills of this disease.Methods The X-ray,CT and MRI imaging of 27 cases with CB which were verified by histopathological examination and the misdiagnosed cases were analyzed retrospectively.Results Accurate diagnosis of preoperative images was made in 10 cases and all 10 cases were located in the epiphysis of long bone.X-ray and CT showed eccentric round and oval osteolytic bone destruction,with sclerotic rim and internal spotted calcification;MRI showed hypointensity on T1 WI and heterogeneous hypo-and hyperintensity on T2 WI,with peripheral regions of marrow edema and adjacent joint effusion.Seventeen cases were misdiagnosed preoperatively,including 8 cases in long bone epiphysis or apophysis,8 cases in short,flat and irregular bones and 1 case in metaphysis of long bone.Twelve cases showed expansive changes and 10 cases with associated aneurysmal bone cyst(ABC)showed fluid-fluid levels.Conclusion The CB shows sandy or stippled calcification,rim sclerosis,extensive surrounding bone marrow edema.CB in unusual sites usually shows expansive bone destruction,peripheral bone marrow edema,secondary aneurysmal bone cyst.Combined utilization of clinic,pathology and imaging features is helpful for the diagnosis.
