Osteosarcoma does not often affect the bones of the skull, occurring preferentially in the appendicular skeleton. The patient's age at onset seems to be later when the tumor is in the skull than in other sites. CT and MRI are at present the best means of establishing the extent of the tumor. Surgical removal of the lesion combined with polychemotherapy is the basis of treatment. We report a case of osteosarcoma of the skull in a child and review relevant publications.
骨肉瘤很少累及颅骨,更常发生于四肢骨骼。肿瘤发生在颅骨时患者的发病年龄似乎比其他部位要晚。目前,CT和MRI是确定肿瘤范围的最佳手段。手术切除病变并联合多药化疗是治疗的基础。我们报告一例儿童颅骨骨肉瘤病例并回顾相关文献。
