Popliteus Muscle as a Barrier to Tumor Spread: Computed Tomography and Angiography

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography (1984)

Terry M. Hudson Dempsey S. Springfield Mark L. Schiebler

We reviewed 14 patients with primary bone tumors of the proximal tibia whose plain radiographs suggested possible posterior soft tissue extension. Four tumors extended posteriorly and displaced the major vessels on angiography. However, high resolution computed tomography (CT) showed the normal popliteus muscle lying between the tibia and the major vessels in three instances. When CT was equivocal, angiography in the lateral projection with the knee flexed was helpful for further evaluation. Index Terms: Bone, neoplasms—Muscle—Computed tomography.

The surgical treatment of parosteal osteosarcoma in long bones.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (1985)

W F Enneking Dempsey S. Springfield Martin Gross

The cases of twenty-five patients with Stage-I parosteal osteosarcoma were analyzed to ascertain the incidence of recurrence after forty-two various surgical procedures that produced an intracapsular, marginal, wide, or radical excisional margin. Ten intracapsular resections were followed by local recurrence in each patient. This procedure usually was done to shell-out a presumably benign lesion. Marginal excision was successful in nine of seventeen patients. When a marginal excision was knowingly done to preserve a major neurovascular bundle, the risk of recurrence was less (three of eleven) than when it was done to shell-out a presumptively benign lesion (five of six). The fourteen procedures that achieved wide margins obtained local control--that is, there was no recurrence--in each patient. There was one radical procedure without recurrence.

Chondroblastoma. A review of seventy cases.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (1985)

Dempsey S. Springfield Rodolfo Capanna F. Gherlinzoni Piero Picci Mario Campanacci

We reviewed the cases of seventy patients with chondroblastoma who were treated at the Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli between 1949 and 1983 and found that the proximal end of the humerus was the most common location (eighteen), with the proximal end of the femur (fifteen), distal end of the femur (fifteen), and proximal end of the tibia (twelve) being the other frequently involved sites. Sixty-three of the patients were between eleven and thirty years old. Fifty-eight patients sought medical attention because of an aching pain, usually referred to the adjacent joint. Fifty patients were followed for two years or longer after treatment. Seven patients had a local recurrence: four were successfully treated with a repeat curettage and one, by two subsequent marginal excisions; one was advised to have a repeat curettage; and the seventh was advised to have a resection and arthrodesis of the knee. The final functional results were considered to be excellent in forty-seven of the fifty patients who were followed for two years or more.
