Abstract:
Authors reviewed 21 cases of histologically confirmed rib tumor except metastasis and myeloma from Nov. 1973 to Dec. 1982 at Seoul National University Hospital. The resuls are as follows: 1. Major clinical findings are painand mass. 2. Pathologic diagnosis of rib tumors are 5 cases of fibrous dysplasia, 3 chondroma, 2 osteochondroma, 2desmoplastic fibroma, 3 chondroma, 2 osteochondroma, 2 desmoplastic fibroma, 5 osteosarcoma, 1 aneurysmal bonecyst, 1 eosinophilic granuloma, 1 cavernous hemangioma, 1 chondrosarcoma. 3. Radiologic findings are osteolyticchange and cortical expansion without marginal sclerosis in fibrous dysplasia, central location, well-definedosteolytic change with marginal sclerosis and no cortical destruction in desmoplastic fibroma, corticaldestruction, soft tissue mass and pleural effusion in malignant tumors.
