Pulmonary toxocariasis masquerading as metastatic tumor nodules in a child with osteosarcoma.

13 Dec 2009 A 14-year-old male, who completed chemotherapy following limb salvage surgery for osteosarcoma approximately 2 years ago, was seen for routine follow-up. A CT scan revealed new scattered multifocal nodular lesions. An ultrasonography-guided ... Read more...

Langerhans cell histiocytosis in a patient with stage 4 neuroblastoma receiving oral fenretinide.

29 Nov 2009 Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) has previously been reported in association with other malignancies. The pathogenesis of LCH and its relationship to other malignancies is poorly understood. We present a novel case of a child who developed an LCH ... Read more...

Epidemiology of bone tumours in children and young adults.

29 Nov 2009 Although the epidemiology of malignant bone tumours in children and young adults has been explored, no definitive causation of any specific tumour has yet been identified. We performed a literature review (1970-2008) to find all papers covering ... Read more...
