Summary

This volume presents a selection of clinical cases with the emphasis on tumors of bone and soft tissues. Both common and rare conditions are included. Case for case, the reader is supplied with information and invited to suggest a diagnosis. In each case the patient's history is briefly reviewed and characteristic images (plain radiographs, CT and MR) are reproduced. Special importance is attached to lucid analysis, basic considerations and systematic image interpretation. The readers can first form their own opinion, then compare their conclusion with the suggested differential diagnoses. Each case is histologically verified, and the definitive diagnosis is betrayed on the last page. Each case presentation closes with a concise summary of the important clinical data relating to the entity concerned. This authoritative yet eminently readable book is a practical guide to the analysis of the kind of complex orthopedic cases with which orthopedists and radiologists should become familiar.
