The visible evidence of Leukamia usually follows an aggressive or a long standing abnormality. The radiologic expression of the disease is of an enlargement of the soft tissue mass of the bone marrow with loss of bone, particularly at the metaphyses where bone turnover is a little higher. The bone...

Hodgkin's Lymphoma is primarily a disease of cells which make-up the lymphatic system. Its cellular characteristic is the presence of Reed Sternberg cells with double nuclei. Lymphadenopathy is the particular manifestation. It is distinguished macroscopically from the other lymphomas by predominantly involvement of adjacent or contiguous glands. Lymphomas may be...

These tumours as a bone present in the 3rd or 4th decades or later. Males have a greater frequency as much as 2x that of females. The sites of predilection are long bones and primarily diaphyseal affecting the medulla of the bone. The lesion is destructive and shows a patchy...

Discussion: - bone tumor derived from reticuloendothelial elements of marrow; - it presents in middle age; - causes localized bone pain w/ tenderness & effussion in adjacent joints

Radiology case 428-341 A 13 year old boy with anaemia.
There is a patchy destructive process, prodominantly in the medulla of the distal metaphyses of the left radius and ulna. The process is more marked in the distal metaphysis of the left ulna. More proximally, there is a visible reaction over...
