Overview

On x-ray, chondrosarcoma is characterized by lytic lesion, intralesional calcification, endosteal scalloping, and cortical remodeling.

X Ray

Views

  • AP and lateral view of the affected bone is needed.

Findings

  • An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of chondrosarcoma. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of chondrosarcoma include: :[1][2][3][4]
    • Lytic or blastic lesion
    • Intralesional calcification classicaly called as popcorn calcification.
    • Endosteal scalloping affecting more than two thirds of the cortical thickness
    • Moth eaten appearance or permeative appearance in higher grade tumors.
    • Cortical remodeling, thickening and periosteal reaction seen in mesenchymal chondrosarcoma.
    • These findings are useful in distinguishing between an enchondroma and low grade chondrosarcoma.
    • De-differentiated chondrosarcomas radiographically show a lower grade chondroid lesion with superimposed highly destructive area consistent with the high grade transformed dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma.
