High-Yield Explanation
This is a case of osteosarcoma. 1ST image shows impressive swelling throughout the deltoid region, as well as the disuse atrophy of the pectoral musculature. Radiographic appearance of a proximal humeral osteosarcoma with the radiodense matrix of the intramedullary poion of the lesion, as well as the soft-tissue extension and aggressive periosteal reaction. Intense radionuclide uptake of the proximal humerus is noted on a bone scan. The tumor cells vary in size and shape and frequently have large hyperchromatic nuclei. Bizarre tumor giant cells are common, as are mitoses, some of them abnormal (e.g. tripolar). Vascular invasion is usually conspicuous, and some tumors also exhibit extensive necrosis. The formation of bone by the tumor cells is diagnostic. X-RAY FEATURES: - Medullary and coical bone destruction Wide zone of transition, permeative or moth-eaten appearance Aggressive periosteal reaction Sunburst type Codman triangle Lamellated (onion skin) reaction: less frequently seen Soft-tissue mass
