Purpose: To evaluate association of giant cell tumors recurrence between markers of proliferation cells (MCM3, Ki-67 and HH3) Materials and Methods: Ten case of giant cell tumor of bone were reviewed. The patients were six males and four females (mean age: 33 yrs). All patients were done operation after biopsy. The radiologic grading was determined according to Enneking grading system. The immunohistochemical stains of MCM3, HH3, and Ki-67 were done with Microarray block. Results: The three cases of 10 cases (30%) were recurred at same sites. Two case of recurrence was grade II according to radiologic features. The remaining case was grade I. The expression rate of immunohistochemical markers in radiologic grade 2 and 3 were more increased than grade 1. But there was not association between radiologic grading and proliferation of tumor cells because result data was not coherence. Mean MCM3 labeling index of non-recurred case was 11.2%, recurred case was 7.2%. Ki-67 was 12% vs. 8.9%, respectively and HH3 was 66.9 % vs. 75.4%, respectively. Thus there was no association between local recurrence and immunohistochemical Ki-67, MCM3 expression rate. But HH3 marker expression rate was increased in recurred cases compared to non-recurred cases. Conclusion: Our study suggests that HH3 immunohistochemical marker can be a useful prognostic factor.

Purpose : To verify radiological changes of limb salvage operation using tumor prosthesis. Materials and Methods : Sixty-nine cases which used tumor prosthesis were reviewed. They have been followed up for average four years and nine months. We evaluated radiographs by ISOLS(International Symposium On Limb Salvage) radiological implants evaluation system immediate postoperatively, at postoperative 1 year and last follow-up. After converting 'excellent, good, fair, poor' to '4, 3, 2, 1' for stastical analysis, data were analyzed according to the use of cement, anatomical sites, diagnosis implant designs and age (<20 year vs. ${\geq}$20 year) using t-test and ANOVA. Results : The outcomes of cemented type prostheses were superior in remodelling and interface but inferior in anchorage. The scores of proximal femur and distal tibia were worse in bone remodelling. Osteosarcoma group had lower scores in anchorage and implant articular problem. There were no significant differences according to four different implant designs and age. Conclusion : In the intermediate term follow-up radiological evaluation, cemented type prosthesis were better in the aspects of bony resorption and osteolysis, and cementless one in anchorage. Distal femur and proximal tibia have higher scores in bony resorption, and osteosarcoma was worse tumor entity in anchorage and articular problem, and chemotherapy may be the cause.

Purpose: Chondroblastoma of bone is rare with the potential for local recurrence and metastasis. A retrospective review of 30 patients with chondroblastoma of bone treated at a single institution during a 24-year period was conducted to determine the clinical outcome and relevant prognostic factors. Materials and Methods: Thirty patients with biopsy-proven chondroblastoma of bone, treated between September of 1981 and September of 2005, were retrospectively reviewed. There were 16 men and 14 women with an average follow-up period of 7.2 years (range, 1.6~21.2). The most common sites were the distal femur (n=7), proximal humerus (n=6), proximal tibia (n=6) and proximal femur (n=4). The average age of the patients was 20 years (range, 12~47) with closed physes in 20 patients(67%.) Twenty-seven patients(90%) were treated by curettage of the tumor with or without bone grafting or cementing. Three patients(10%) were treated with en bloc resection. Clinical and pathological factors reported to be associated with poor outcome were analyzed. Results: Four local recurrences(13%) developed in postoperative 4, 6, 7 and 16 months. These patients underwent further curettage (once in 2 patients and twice 2) and had no further recurrence. All patients showed no evidence of disease at the final follow-up. Local recurrence developed in the two cases which removal of the tumor was incomplete. Curettage and bone-grafting (1) and cementing (1) were performed in the two other cases with local recurrences. In contrast, no local recurrences were observed in the 3 cases treated with en-bloc resection. The status of physes or the histologic presence of aneurysmal bone cyst, the anatomic location of the tumor did not affect local recurrence. Conclusion: Adequate removal of the tumor with aggressive curettage or en bloc resection seems to be necessary to prevent local recurrence in chondroblastoma. The status of physes, the histologic presence of aneurysmal bone cyst or the anatomic location of the tumor was not related with local recurrence.

Purpose: Periprosthetic fractures of a tumor prosthesis are rare but have difficulties in achieving sound fixation because of the poor bone quality, which increases the risk of loosening or re-fracture, even after bone union. A cortical strut onlay allograft was adopted for peri-prosthetic fractures after hip arthroplasty into the periprosthetic fracture of a tumor prosthesis, assuming that it would assist in firm fixation, shorten the time to union, and increase the bone stock, thereby, lower the chance of loosening and re-fracture. Materials and Methods: This study reviewed 27 patients (30 cases) of periprosthetic fracture of tumor prosthesis. Sixteen cases (allograft group) had augmentation with an onlay allograft, while 14 cases (conventional group) had internal fixation or conservative treatment. The following were assessed; mode of periprosthetic fracture, difference in the time to union between a strut cortical onlay allograft and without it, and survival of prosthesis, complication, and functional outcome between the two groups. Results: According to the unified classification system (UCS), 21 cases were type B (70.0%; B1, 14; B2, 1; B3, 6) and 9 cases were type C. The five-, 10-year survival of the 30 reconstructions by Kaplan-Meier plot was 84.5%±4.18% and 42.2%±7.83%, respectively. The average time to bone union of the entire cohort was 5.1 months (range, 2.0-11.2 months). The allograft group (3.5 months) showed a shorter period for union than the conventional group (7.2 months) (p<0.0001). All four cases of major complications occurred in the conventional group. Two cases with loosening and anterior angulation were treated with a change of prosthesis, and another with infection underwent amputation. The remaining case with loosening had conservative management. At the final follow-up, the average Musculosketal Tumor Society score of the allograft group (26.1) was better than that of the conventional group (20.9). Conclusion: Bone union in periprosthetic fractures of a tumor prosthesis can be achieved, but the minimization of complications is important. An onlay allograft facilitates firm fixation and increases the bone stock with a shortened time to union. This simple method can minimize the risk of loosening, joint contracture, and re-fracture.

양성 종양(benign tumor)을 언급하기에 앞서 과오종(hamartoma) 및 과다 형성(hyperplasia)과의 차이를 구분할 필요가 있다. 양성 종양은 기원조직과 유사한 조직이 이상 증식하는 것으로 서서히 성장하지만 일반적으로 치료하기 전까지 이상 증식을 지속하는 진성 신생물을 일컫는다. 이에 비해 과오종은 정상 조직이 무질서하게 과증식하는 것으로 일정기간 후에는 성장을 멈추기 때문에 진성 신생물로 간주하지 않는다. 그러나 일부 과오종이 양성 종양에 포함되기도 하는데, 예를 들어 치아종은 정상적인 치성 조직의 성장이 완료되는 시기와 거의 동일한 시기에 성장을 멈추지만 양성 종양으로 분류된다. 과다 형성은 조직의 세포가 정상적인 배열 양상을 보이면서 세포의 수가 증가하는 것으로 지속적인 성장 양상을 보이지만 그 성장이 제한적이므로 양성 종양과는 구별된다. 양성 종양은 일반적으로 무통성으로 서서히 성장하기 때문에 종양의 크기가 증가하여 안면 종창이나 동통 등을 유발하는 경우에 발견될 수 있으며, 방사선검사에서 우연히 발견되기도 한다. 방사선검사는 병소의 위치, 범위, 특징 및 병소와 인접 해부학적 구조와의 관계 등 많은 방사선학적 진단 정보를 제공한다. 일부 종양은 방사선사진에서 매우 특징적인 소견을 나타내기 때문에 방사선학적 소견으로 예비 진단을 할 수 있을 정도의 진단정보를 제공하기도 하는 반면 어떤 종양들은 방사선사진에서 관찰되는 소견이 매우 유사하여 진단에 어려움을 주기도 한다. 따라서 종양의 확진을 위해서는 생검이 필수적이며, 방사선검사는 반드시 생검에 앞서 진행되어야만 정확한 방사선학적 진단을 할 수 있다. 양성 종양은 각각의 특징적인 방사선학적인 소견을 나타내지만 일반적으로 관찰되는 양성 종양의 특징이 존재하므로 이러한 일반적인 특징을 관찰하여 병소가 양성인지 악성인지를 감별할 수 있다. 첫째, 양성 종양은 대개 호발하는 부위가 있으므로 종양의 발생부위는 감별 진단을 하는 데 매우 중요하다. 일반적으로 치성 병소는 치아가 형성되는 하악관 상방의 치조돌기에서, 혈관성 및 신경성 병소는 하악관 내에서, 연골성 종양은 하악과두와 같이 연골세포가 잔존되어 있는 부위에서 발생하는 경우가 많다. 둘째, 양성 종양은 대체로 명확한 경계와 피질골성 변연을 보이며, 종종 병소가 결체조직으로 둘러싸여 있어 병소 주위에 방사선투과성 띠가 관찰되기도 한다. 셋째, 양성 종양은 일반적으로 인접 주위 조직에 압력을 가하면서 서서히 성장하기 때문에 인접 치아의 변위 또는 흡수, 피질골의 비박, 팽융 등의 소견을 보이며 피질골의 천공은 드물다. 방사선학적으로 양성 종양의 병소 내부는 방사선투과상으로 관찰되거나, 방사선불투과상으로 관찰되거나, 방사선투과상과 방사선불투과상이 혼재된 상으로 관찰된다. 저자는 이 지면에서 이러한 방사선학적 특징을 기초로 하여 구강악안면영역에 발생하는 양성 종양을 분류하고 각각의 특징에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma(MFH) of the maxilla is a rare malignant bone tumor Seven percents of all MFH occur in the head and neck. Approximately $12{\%}$ of these tumors occur in the maxilla. Local recurrence or distant metastasis was reported in $55{\%}$ of cases of maxillary MFH. The mean survival time of 30 months was reported from a review of 14 MFHs in the maxilla, mandible and oral soft tissues. MFH of the maxilla is best treated surgically but radical neck dissection does not appear to be indicated unless there is clinical evidence of lymph node metastases Although the use of radiation therapy for head and neck MFH has not been studied for a series of cases, individual cases of regression or histological change have been reported. Other authors have reported numbers of cases who received radiation therapy without benefit. Response to combination chemotherapy has been reported in $33{\%}$ of 23 patients with recurrent or metastatic MFH. We report here a case of MFH occurring in the maxilla with a review of literature about the clinical behavior and treatment of these lesions.

We present a case of parosteal osteosarcoma of the femur with secondary dedifferentiation. This 57-year-old woman was radiologically diagnosed as a parosteal osteosarcoma in 1987. In 1992, excisional biopsy revealed a classical parosteal osteosarcoma with diploidy DNA pattern. In 1998, she revisited due to a recurrent tumor with pathologic fracture. The resected specimen showed a classic parosteal osteosarcoma with area of dedifferentiation, showing high-grade spindle cell sarcoma. This dedifferentiated area revealed aneuploidy cell population on DNA flow cytometry. This case reminds us that not all parosteal osteosarcomas are low-grade lesions. Some low-grade lesions may dedifferentiate to become high-grade tumors after inadequate excision.
