Fine-needle aspiration biopsy can be utilized effectively in the diagnosis of many bone lesions. Often, these lesions are suspected to be foci of metastatic disease based on clinical and/or radiographic findings. On occasion, microscopic examination of the aspirate yields a diagnosis of a primary neoplasm of chondroid origin. We discuss the cytologic features observed in crush preparations of the most frequently seen primary chondroid tumors of bone and how these lesions can be differentiated from each other and from metastatic lesions.
细针穿刺活检可有效用于多种骨病变的诊断。通常，基于临床和/或影像学表现，这些病变被怀疑是转移瘤病灶。偶尔，对穿刺物的显微镜检查可得出软骨样起源的原发性肿瘤的诊断。我们讨论在最常见的原发性骨软骨样肿瘤的压碎标本中观察到的细胞学特征，以及这些病变如何相互区分，以及如何与转移瘤病变区分开来。
