BACKGROUND
Clear cell chondrosarcoma is a rare bone tumor, which is sometimes misdiagnosed as a different bone neoplasm.
METHODS
The files of 6 patients with clear cell chondrosarcomas were reviewed. Histological slides, radiographic studies, and pre- and post-operative serum alkaline phosphatase
Seven well differentiated chondrosarcomas of bone have been analyzed by electron microscopy, and the fine structural localization of adenosine triphosphatase and nonspecific alkaline phosphatase has been elucidated. On the basis of the fine structural appearance, two distinct cell types were shown
This paper report a case of a pelvic clear-cell chondrosarcoma that was initially diagnosed as clear-cell osteosarcoma after needle biopsy. Preoperatively, laboratory studies revealed an elevated alkaline phosphatase and needle biopsy showed clear cells producing osteoid. Internal hemipelvectomy was
The expression of the two catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase (PP) type 1 PP1 gamma 1 and PP1 delta was examined in 4 cases of osteochondroma and 4 cases of enchondroma as a benign cartilaginous tumor, and 4 cases of chondrosarcoma as a malignant cartilaginous tumor using immunohistochemical
Although it is generally acknowledged that matrix vesicles and alkaline phosphatase are required for cartilage calcification, their precise role in initiation or propagation of mineralization remains controversial. We have investigated this problem in a neoplastic model of chondrogenesis, the Swarm
BACKGROUND
The autosomal dominant condition multiple osteochondromas, formerly called multiple hereditary exostoses, is associated with a risk of malignant progression of osteochondroma into secondary peripheral chondrosarcoma. Most patients with multiple osteochondromas have exostosin-1 or
We report on a case of clear cell chondrosarcoma (CCCS) of the left iliac bone in a 12-year-old skeletally immature boy. Radiographic examination revealed an aggressive osteolytic lesion with areas of mineralization. Fluid-fluid levels were seen on T2-weighted MR images. Laboratory data showed
The molecular nature of an osteosarcoma-associated antigen was investigated with the three monoclonal antibodies Ost6 (immunoglobulin (IgG1), Ost7 (IgG1), and Ost15 (IgG2a), which selectively react with frozen sections of osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma tissues. When tested with a panel of 41 human
Epithelial glandular differentiation in dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma has not been described. Our patient was a 64-year-old man with a history of prostate cancer status post-radiation and hormonal therapy. On screening bone scan, he was found to have increased uptake in his right femoral shaft.
A 6 yr old castrated male English springer spaniel was evaluated with a 1 mo history of progressive right forelimb lameness with recent swelling around the elbow joint. Physical examination findings included lameness of the right forelimb, muscle atrophy around the right shoulder, grade 2/6 heart
We examined the effect of the inflammatory mediator interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha) on cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALPase) activity, and the expressions of cartilage matrix proteins, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), and BMP-2 receptors in human chondrosarcoma cell line OUMS-27
Spectrometry has been employed to assess the levels of collagenase, catepsin D, trypsin-like proteinases and their inhibitors as well as bone acid and alkaline phosphatase both in the center and along the periphery of giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) and chondrosarcoma. The levels of collagenase,
Aspiration of lytic bone lesions is an excellent diagnostic test in the initial evaluation of primary bone neoplasia. However, cytologically, it can be difficult to differentiate osteosarcoma (OSA) from other bone neoplasms, including fibrosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, synovial cell sarcoma, and plasma
The expression of the three catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase (PP) type 1 and 2A, PP1 alpha, PP1 gamma 1, and PP2AC, was examined in osteogenic tumors and soft tissue tumors by immunohistochemical analysis. The percentage of cells stained positively with antiserum against PP1 catalytic
