  • Chordoma_ A Comprehensive Overview of Spinal Cancer
    Feb 16 2025
    Chordoma is a "rare slow-growing neoplasm thought to arise from cellular remnants of the notochord." This origin explains its location along the neuraxis and similar immunohistochemical staining patterns. • Notochordal cells are preferentially left behind in the clivus and sacrococcygeal regions.

  • Chondrosarcoma_ Diagnosis, Types, and Treatment
    Feb 16 2025
    Chondrosarcoma is a type of bone cancer originating in cartilage-producing cells. It represents approximately 30% of all bone sarcomas. It is often resistant to traditional cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiotherapy. It can occur at any age, and is most often found in the axial skeleton (spine, skull). Diagnosis involves imaging and biopsy. Treatment primarily involves surgery, with proton therapy showing promise. Prognosis varies significantly depending on the tumor's grade.

  • Adamantinoma_ A Rare Bone Tumor Overview
    Feb 15 2025
    Adamantinoma (from Greek adamantinos 'very hard') is a rare bone cancer, making up less than 1% of all bone cancers."
    "The slow-growing tumor predominantly arises in long bones in a subcortical location (95% in the tibia or fibula)."
    "Benign osteofibrous dysplasia may be a precursor of adamantinoma or a regressive phase of adamantinoma."
    "X-rays of the affected area show a well defined tumour in bone, with multiple lobules giving a 'soap bubble' appearance."
    "Treatment consists of wide resection or amputation."
    "Metastases are rare at presentation but may occur in up to 30% of patients during the disease course. Prognosis is excellent, with overall survival of 85% at 10 years, but is lower when wide surgical margins cannot be obtained."
