Sarcomas mostly metastasize via blood vessels
**Osteoid tissue does not have lymphatics **
Pathology Secrets Third Edition
Paget diseases of bone → increased risk of osteosarcomas
AIDS, HHV8 → Kaposi sarcomas
Neurofibromatosis type 1 → multiple neurofibromas → malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors
Retinoblastoma patients → after treatment risk of osteosarcomas
Li Fraumeni → Osteosarcomas
Rhabdomyosarcomas <5 yrs
Osteosarcoma 6-15 yrs
Osteogenic sarcoma → radioactive phosphorus painters early 20th century
Liver angiosarcoma → radioactive Thorotrast use as a radiologic imaging contrast material

Angiosarcoma
Rubin’s Pathology 7th Ed
Most important malignant vascular tumor, occurs most often in soft tissues
May involve the bones, internal organs, and any part of the body
composed of malignant endothelial cells forming irregular anastomozing channels or solid nests
Prognosis depends on the size of the lesions and the extent of spread

Can also affect internal organs

Chondrosarcoma
Rubin’s Pathology 7th Ed
Second most common primary malignant bone tumor.
Peak incidence in the 40- to 60-year-old
Axial skeleton—pelvis, vertebra, shoulder, and proximal parts of the femur and radius.
Chondrosarcomas are slower-growing tumors than osteosarcomas
Untreated tumors generally have a better prognosis than osteosarcomas
Chondrosarcomas do not respond well to chemotherapy
Prognosis depends on the resectability of the tumor, its histologic grade, and the presence or absence of hematogenous metastases

Malignant bone tumor forming osteoid
Osteosarcoma
Rubin’s Pathology 7th Ed
Robbins Basic Pathology
Most common primary bone tumor
Peak incidence in second decade of life
Metaphysis of long bones of the extremities
60% of cases found around the knee joint
Invades locally and metastasizes hematogenously to the lungs
Very malignant (Without therapy there is high mortality
Combined chemotherapy with surgery is curative in 80% of childhood and adolescent tumors
Old-age osteosarcomas have a less favorable response to therapy
