Multifocal low-grade central osteosarcoma: a rare case

Low-grade central osteosarcoma (LGCOS) is a rare variant of osteosarcoma. We present a rare case of multifocal LGCOS located in two distinct skeletal sites, initially noted as incidental findings on imaging for distant traumatic pathology. Both sites seemed small and innocuous on initial imaging, an...

More Information
Summary:Low-grade central osteosarcoma (LGCOS) is a rare variant of osteosarcoma. We present a rare case of multifocal LGCOS located in two distinct skeletal sites, initially noted as incidental findings on imaging for distant traumatic pathology. Both sites seemed small and innocuous on initial imaging, and were quiescent clinically, illustrating the value of close interval multimodal surveillance scanning.
