Overview
Osteosarcoma must be differentiated from Ewing's sarcoma, giant cell tumors, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, osteomyelitis, and aneurysmal bone cyst.
Differentiating Osteosarcoma from other Diseases
Osteosarcoma must be differentiated from:
- Osteosarcoma with diaphyseal location may suggest Ewing's sarcoma
- Malignant fibrous histiocytoma
- Lymphoma
- Osteoblastoma
- Aneurysmal bone cyst
- Rhabdomyosarcoma
- Fibrosarcoma
When the lesion is at the posteromedial distal femur consider:
- Cortical desmoid
