Osteosarcoma arising in relation to an enchondroma. A report of three cases.
Three cases are reported in which an osteosarcoma developed in relation to an enchondroma in a long bone. Two of the cases were in the proximal femur whilst one occurred in the proximal humerus, both recognised sites for old calcified enchondromas or "cartilage rests". The ages of the patients at presentation were 55, 63 and 84 years and all were women. Two patients died with pulmonary metastases within six months of the onset of clinical symptoms. Despite their intimate relationship to the enchondromas, none of the osteosarcomas could be shown histologically to have arisen from tumour cartilage. It appears probable that these are cases in which independently arising tumours have merged to form a so-called "collision" tumour, but the possibility that they could have been derived by dedifferentiation of a previously benign neoplasm cannot be discounted.
