Massive osteolysis, also called Gorham's disease, is an uncommon disease in which bone virtually disintegrates and is replaced by vascular fibrous connective tissue. The authors treated two children with massive osteolysis of the chest. Both conditions responded well to radiation therapy; one even showed evidence of reossification. Massive osteolysis should be considered in children who have spontaneous hemothorax. The bony structures should be examined for evidence of lytic lesions.
大量骨质溶解，也称为戈勒姆病，是一种罕见疾病，其中骨骼实际上会分解并被血管性纤维结缔组织所取代。作者治疗了两名患有胸部大量骨质溶解的儿童。两种情况对放射治疗反应良好；其中一名甚至显示出重新骨化的迹象。对于患有自发性血胸的儿童应考虑大量骨质溶解。应检查骨骼结构以寻找溶骨性病变的证据。
