Summary

Juxtacortical osteosarcoma should be considered a very rare distinctive entity under all malignant bone tumors. The tumor has a remarkable tendency to grow from the periostal tissues peripherally with a usually marked degree of ossification without primary medullary involvement. It's different und characteristic behavior in clinical, roentgenographic and microscopic findings from that of other types of bone-forming sarkomas is discussed by means of a just treated case. In contrast to osteogenic osteosarcoma the prognosis for early well treated juxtacortical osteosarcoma is much better.

Zusammenfassung

Das juxtacorticale Osteosarkom stellt eine sehr seltene Sonderform unter den primär malignen Knochentumoren dar. Es zeichnet sich durch ein stark ossifizierendes, vom Periost ausgehendes zentrifugal gerichtetes Wachstum aus, das zunächst keinen infiltrierenden Charakter hat. Anhand einer kasuistischen Einzelbeobachtung werden die charakteristischen klinischen, röntgenologischen und pathologischen Kriterien, die sich von dem anderer primär maligner Knochentumoren unterscheiden, diskutiert. Die Prognose der Erkrankung ist bei frühzeitiger adäquater Behandlung wesentlich günstiger als beim osteogenen Osteosarkom.
