  • Title: Primary pelvic bone tumours in children and adolescents--imaging correlation.
    Author: Hugosson C, Lindahl S, Rifai A.
    Journal: Acta Radiol; 1994 Nov; 35(6):549-54. PubMed ID: 7946676.
    Abstract:
    Eight children aged 6 to 17 years (mean 13.3 years) were examined using conventional radiography, radionuclide bone scintigraphy, CT and MR imaging for pre-treatment assessment of extensive primary pelvic bone tumours. The tumours evaluated were Ewing's sarcoma (n = 4), osteogenic sarcoma (n = 3), and chondrosarcoma (n = 1). Each imaging modality made a contribution to the evaluation of the primary tumour. Conventional radiography and bone scintigraphy were necessary for the initial diagnosis, with CT playing a complementary role. MR imaging and/or dynamic contrast-enhanced CT were mandatory prior to surgical resection.
