Question 1

This uncontrolled growth of osteoblasts is usually found in the long bone metaphysis and causes persistent nocuturnal pain that is not relieved with rest

Accepted Answer

Osteosarcoma

Question 2

What radiologic finding would be present in a patient with osteosarcoma

Accepted Answer

lytic leisons with cortical destruction

Question 3

What interval should you perform a CXR on a patient diagnosed with a giant cell tumor to check for pulmonary involvement?

Accepted Answer

Every 6-12 months

Question 4

This malignancy arises from cartilege cells, bones will have no osteoid formation, and is treated with aggressive surgical intervention and radiation

Accepted Answer

Chondrosarcoma

Question 5

This benign tumor commonly occurs in the spine, dissolves healthy bone and does not respond well to NSAIDs for pain control

Accepted Answer

Osteoblastoma

Question 6

This benign tumor occurs in the epiphysis of long bone distal to the femur and proximal to the tibia

Accepted Answer

Giant Cell Tumor

Question 7

This cartilege capped tumor grows away from the metaphysis of the knee, is usually an asymptomatic, non-tender mass, and can cause pain if impingement occurs

Accepted Answer

Osteochondroma

Question 8

What treatment is best for an osteochodroma that develops in childhood

Accepted Answer

Observation

Question 9

Which area of the body are malignant chondrosarcomas most likely to arise?

Accepted Answer

Metacarpal bones

Question 10

This benign tumor is most often found in the spine, causes radiating pain and nerve/spinal impingement

Accepted Answer

Osteoblastoma

Question 11

What stage are enchondromas most often found?

Accepted Answer

Stage 1 or 2

Question 12

This will cause pain before any visible radiologic findings are present, and MRI findings will include skip lesions and dialated veins

Accepted Answer

Osteosarcoma

Question 13

What diagnostic modality is used to confirm Osteosarcoma

Accepted Answer

MRI

Question 14

A benign cartilege (hyaline) tumor that shows geographic lysis with sharp margins and calcifications is MOST commonly found incidentally in what area of the body

Accepted Answer

hand

Question 15

This benign tumor can spontaneously resolve, causes pathologic fractures, months of pain; pulmonary mets may be present

Accepted Answer

Giant Cell Tumor
