Abstract

Spinal chondrosarcomas are uncommon malignant bone tumors that are rare in children. The location and imaging features of the lesion help in formulating a differential diagnosis, though in certain instances the lack of typical imaging findings may elude the differential of a chondrosarcoma. There are only a few reported cases in literature and owing to its rarity and lack of specific management protocols in this age group, making treatment decisions can be complex. We report a case of spinal chondrosarcoma in a young girl, where the treatment of choice was primary surgical resection. Transarterial embolization was performed to reduce tumor vascularity and aid the surgery.

一名年轻女孩的脊柱软骨肉瘤：放射学诊断和治疗展望。

脊柱软骨肉瘤是一种不常见的恶性骨肿瘤，在儿童中很少见。病变的位置和影像学特征有助于鉴别诊断，但在某些情况下，缺乏典型的影像学检查结果可能无法鉴别软骨肉瘤。文献中仅有少数病例报道，由于其罕见性和缺乏针对该年龄组的具体治疗方案，治疗决策可能非常复杂。我们报告了一例幼女脊柱软骨肉瘤病例，该病例的首选治疗方法是初级手术切除。为了减少肿瘤血管并帮助手术，我们进行了经动脉栓塞治疗。

期刊介绍： Official Journal of the European Society of Pediatric Radiology, the Society for Pediatric Radiology and the Asian and Oceanic Society for Pediatric Radiology Pediatric Radiology informs its readers of new findings and progress in all areas of pediatric imaging and in related fields. This is achieved by a blend of original papers, complemented by reviews that set out the present state of knowledge in a particular area of the specialty or summarize specific topics in which discussion has led to clear conclusions. Advances in technology, methodology, apparatus and auxiliary equipment are presented, and modifications of standard techniques are described. Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
