  • Title: Parosteal osteosarcoma of a metatarsal with intramedullary invasion.
    Author: Johnson K, Davies AM, Mangham DC, Grimer RJ.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 1999 Feb; 28(2):111-5. PubMed ID: 10197459.
    Abstract:
    A 70-year-old man presented with increasing swelling of 2 years' duration, on the dorsal aspect of the forefoot. Imaging studies revealed a heavily calcified surface lesion of bone with early invasion of the underlying second metatarsal. Both imaging findings and the subsequent resection histology were consistent with a parosteal osteosarcoma, which is particularly rare at this site and at this age. The differential diagnosis of a mineralizing surface lesion of bone arising in the foot is discussed.
