Shashikant Raghunath Mane

Abstract :

 Background: – Radiological evaluation is more accurate in characterization of primary bone osteosarcomas as compared to other malignant lesions affecting human body. However, pathological correlation is always needed from treatment point of view as early diagnosis and staging will directly affect the prognosis of the patient. So correlation of radiology with pathology is of utmost importance. 

Methodology: – 50 eligible patients were studied for radio–pathological correlation during period of 35 months at two tertiary centers.

Observations: – Radiological investigations had 86 % diagnostic accuracy as compared to FNAC having 93.3 % & that of CNB – 97.92% for final diagnosis of primary bone osteosarcomas.

Conclusion: – Combined use of Radiology & pathological investigations is recommended in diagnosis of primary bone osteosarcomas.
