Resection of the vertebral arch in the treatment of neoplasms of the spine.

The authors describe the surgical technique of en bloc resection of musculoskeletal neoplasms that originate and invade the posterior arch of the thoracolumbar spine. Surgery is indicated for the treatment of aggressive benign tumors (Enneking stage 3) and malignant tumors. For surgical margins to be adequate, both pedicles must be free of the tumor.

Clinical and radiographic progression of fibrous dysplasia: cystic change or sarcoma? Description of a clinical case and review of the literature.

The clinical and radiographic progression of fibrous dysplasia may be due to a cystic-hemorrhagic change, or to a sarcomatous transformation. The distinction between these two possibilities, which is essential to treatment, depend on the biopsy. A case of fibrous dysplasia in a female aged 18 years is described in which, 3 years after pathologic fracture consolidated with non-surgical treatment, clinical and radiographic progression occurred, enough to suspect malignant transformation. Histological diagnosis showed fibrous dysplasia with a cartilaginous component and cystic-hemorrhagic changes, and curettage-bone allografting resulted in healing of the lesion.
