==Overview==
==Overview==
'''Adamantinoma''' is a rare [[bone tumor|bone cancer]], making up less than 1% of all bone cancers. It predominantly arises in bone in a subcutaneous location (85% are in the [[tibia]]).  Most commonly, patients are in their second or third decade, but it can occur over a wide age range.
* Adamantinoma was first discovered by Fischer in 1913. Adamantinoma is classified into 2 distinct types: classic and differentiated (Osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) - like). Adamantinoma is a low grade, [[malignant]] bone tumor. This tumor is predominantly located in [[tibia]] ( most in mid-portion of [[tibia]]). Most locations of the tumor include [[tibia]], ipsilateral [[fibula]], [[humerus]], [[ulna]], [[femur]], [[fibula]]. It is a Yellow gray or grayish white [[tumor]]. In microscopic examination admixture of both [[Epithelium|epithelial]] and osteofibrous component can be seen. Adamantinoma may be caused by displacement of basal [[epithelium]] of skin during [[embryogenesis]], traumatic implantation. Adamantinoma is a rare bone cancer ( 0.1–0.5% of all primary [[bone]] [[Tumor|tumors]] ). Risk factors in the development of adamantinoma may include benign [[osteofibrous dysplasia]]. If left untreated, 15-30% of patients with adamantinoma may metastasize to other parts of the body such as [[lungs]] or nearby [[Lymph node|lymph nodes]]. The diagnosis of adamantinoma is based on the findings of radiologic studies such as [[x-ray]], CT, and [[Magnetic resonance imaging|MRI]]. The most common symptoms of adamantinoma include [[swelling]] with or without pain. Less common symptoms of adamantinoma include pathological fracture. Adamantinoma may present with bowing deformity of the [[tibia]]. There is no medical therapy for adamantinoma. [[Radiation therapy]] and [[chemotherapy]] are not effective. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for adamantinoma.

==Diagnosis==
===Diagnostic Study of Choice===
 
The diagnosis of adamantinoma is based on the findings of radiologic studies such as [[X-rays|x-ray]], [[CT-scans|CT]], and [[Magnetic resonance imaging|MRI]]. 
 
===History and Symptoms===
 
The initial symptoms of adamantinoma are often nonspecific. The most common symptoms of  adamantinoma include [[swelling]] with or without pain. Less common symptoms of adamantinoma include pathological fracture( 23% of patients) <ref name="pmid10954102">{{cite journal |vauthors=Qureshi AA, Shott S, Mallin BA, Gitelis S |title=Current trends in the management of adamantinoma of long bones.

Spinal lesions may be manifested by neurologic symptoms in addition to pain.
 
===Laboratory Findings===
Paraneoplastic [[hypercalcemia]] can be seen in [[tibial]] adamantinoma and [[pulmonary]] [[metastasis]]<ref name="pmid7161313">{{cite journal |vauthors=Altmannsberger M, Poppe H, Schauer A |title=An unusual case of adamantinoma of long bones |journal=J.

===Electrocardiogram===
There are no [[ECG]] findings associated with adamantinoma.
 
===X-ray===
An [[x-ray]] may be helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of adamantinoma include [[central]] or [[Eccentric Lesion|eccentric]], multilocular lesion in [[tibia]]. The tumor is found in the diaphyseal location. [[Metaphyseal]] extention or only involvement of [[metaphysis]] is seen occationally. The lesions are well circumscribed surrounded ring-shaped densities ( soap -bubble appearance). The lesion are more intra-cortical, but if they destroy [[cortex]], extracortical soft tisuue invasion can be seen. The [[periosteal reaction]] can be minimal to prominnet.<ref name="pmid169063923">{{cite journal |vauthors=Van Rijn R, Bras J, Schaap G, van den Berg H, Maas M |title=Adamantinoma in childhood: report of six cases and review of the literature |journal=Pediatr Radiol |volume=36 |issue=10 |pages=1068–74 |date=October 2006 |pmid=16906392 |doi=10.1007/s00247-006-0272-5 |url=}}</ref>
 
===Echocardiography or Ultrasound===
There are no [[echocardiography]]/[[ultrasound]]  findings associated with adamantinoma.
 
===CT scan===
 
[[CT scan]] may be helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. Findings on [[CT scan]] suggestive of adamantinoma include [[Cortical bone|cortical]] involvement and the soft tissue extension if it exist. 
 
Chest CT scan can detect pulmonary [[metastasis]]. <ref name="pmid169063922">{{cite journal |vauthors=Van Rijn R, Bras J, Schaap G, van den Berg H, Maas M |title=Adamantinoma in childhood: report of six cases and review of the literature |journal=Pediatr Radiol |volume=36 |issue=10 |pages=1068–74 |date=October 2006 |pmid=16906392 |doi=10.1007/s00247-006-0272-5 |url=}}</ref>
 
===MRI===
[[MRI]] is helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. It is useful in detection distant cortical foci, [[soft tissue]], and [[intramedullary]] extension. [[MRI]] is a very important diagnostic study for stating of tumor and tumor-free margins. Findings on MRI suggestive of adamantinoma include a [[solitary]] lobulated focus or multiple small nodules in one or more foci. Tumors demonstrate low signal intensity on T1-weighted images and high signal on T2-weighted images.<ref name="pmid15547221">{{cite journal |vauthors=Van der Woude HJ, Hazelbag HM, Bloem JL, Taminiau AH, Hogendoorn PC |title=MRI of adamantinoma of long bones in correlation with histopathology |journal=AJR Am J Roentgenol |volume=183 |issue=6 |pages=1737–44 |date=December 2004 |pmid=15547221 |doi=10.2214/ajr.183.6.01831737 |url=}}</ref>
 
===Other Imaging Findings===
[[Bone scan]] may be helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. Findings on a [[nuclear medicine]] suggestive of  adamantioma include:<ref name="pmid182795174">{{cite journal |vauthors=Jain D, Jain VK, Vasishta RK, Ranjan P, Kumar Y |title=Adamantinoma: a clinicopathological review and update |journal=Diagn Pathol |volume=3 |issue= |pages=8 |date=February 2008 |pmid=18279517 |pmc=2276480 |doi=10.1186/1746-1596-3-8 |url=}}</ref>
* Increased blood flow in the region of the [[tumor]]
* Increased accumulation of [[technetium-99m]] methylene diphosphate in the area of the [[tumor]]
 
===Other Diagnostic Studies===
There are no other diagnostic studies associated with adamantinoma.


Histologically, islands of epithelial cells are found in a fibrous stroma.

Overview

  • Adamantinoma was first discovered by Fischer in 1913. Adamantinoma is classified into 2 distinct types: classic and differentiated (Osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) - like). Adamantinoma is a low grade, malignant bone tumor. This tumor is predominantly located in tibia ( most in mid-portion of tibia). Most locations of the tumor include tibia, ipsilateral fibula, humerus, ulna, femur, fibula. It is a Yellow gray or grayish white tumor. In microscopic examination admixture of both epithelial and osteofibrous component can be seen. Adamantinoma may be caused by displacement of basal epithelium of skin during embryogenesis, traumatic implantation. Adamantinoma is a rare bone cancer ( 0.1–0.5% of all primary bone tumors ). Risk factors in the development of adamantinoma may include benign osteofibrous dysplasia. If left untreated, 15-30% of patients with adamantinoma may metastasize to other parts of the body such as lungs or nearby lymph nodes. The diagnosis of adamantinoma is based on the findings of radiologic studies such as x-ray, CT, and MRI. The most common symptoms of adamantinoma include swelling with or without pain.

Historical Perspective

Adamantinoma was first discovered by Fischer in 1913.[1]

Classification

Adamantinoma is classified into 2 distinct types: classic and differentiated (Osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) - like)

Features
Classic Differentiated
Age >20 years <20 years, Children
Radiology Soft tissue or intramedullary involvement Intra cortical
Histopathology Both epithelial and osteofibrous component, solid nests of basaloid cells OFD (Osteofibrous dysplasia) like pattern, Scattered positivity of epithelial elements for cytokeratin
Behavior Aggressive Relatively benign

Pathophysiology

Adamantinoma is a low grade, malignant bone tumor. This tumor is predominatly located in tibia ( most in mid-portion of tibia). [2] It is a biphasic tumor including epithelial and osteofibrous components.[3].

Most locations of the tumor include:[4]

Gross pathology: [5]
  • Yellow gray or grayish white tumor
  • Fleshy or firm in consistency
  • Some OFD like adamantinomas are solid
  • Macroscopic cysts containing blood like fluid, occasionally
Microscopic examanination: [6]
  • Admixture of both epithelial and osteofibrous component, most commonly solid nests of basaloid cells in classic adamantinoma
  • Nuclear atypia in a few cases
  • Several patterns of growth including
    • Tubular
    • Basaloid
    • Squamous
    • Spindle-cell
    • Osteofibrous dysplasia-like variant
Immunohistochemistry:

Causes

Adamantinoma may be caused by: [10]

  • Displacement of basal epithelium of skin during embrogenesis
  • Traumatic implantation
  • Synovial origin

Differentiating Adamantinoma from Other Diseases

Adamantinoma must be differentiated from aneurrysmal bone cyst, unicameral bone cyst, fibrous dysplasia, chondromyxoid fibroma, eosinophilic granuloma, giant cell tumor, chondromyxoid fibroma, osteomyelitis, chondrosarcoma, epithelial metastasis, hemangioendothelioma, nonossifying fibromas, angiosarcoma.

Epidemiology and Demographics

Adamantinoma is a rare bone cnacer ( 0.1–0.5% of all primary bone tumors ).[11]

The prevalence of Adamantinoma is approximately 0.11 per 100000 individuals in Europe.

The incidence of Adamantinoma was estimated to be less than 300 cases worldwide.

Patients of all age groups may develop adamantinoma. The median age at diagnosis is 25 to 35 years.

Men are more commonly affected by adamantinoma than women. The men to women ratio is approximately 5 to 4.[12]

Risk Factors

Risk factors in the development of adamantinoma may include benign osteofibrous dysplasia. It maybe a precursor of adamantinoma.[13]

Screening

There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for adamantinoma.

Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis

If left untreated, 15-30% of patients with adamantinoma may metastasize to other parts of the body such as lungs or nearby lymph nodes. [14]. Adamantinoma has mortality rate of 13%to 18%. [15]

Complications of adamantinoma include metastases to the lungs.

Prognosis is generally good. Male patint, short duration of symtoms, young age ( less than 20 years) and lack of squamous differentiantion of tumor are related with unfavorable clinical outcome. [16]

Diagnosis

Diagnostic Study of Choice

The diagnosis of adamantinoma is based on the findings of radiologic studies such as x-ray, CT, and MRI.

History and Symptoms

The initial symptoms of adamantinoma are often nonspecific. The most common symptoms of adamantinoma include swelling with or without pain. Less common symptoms of adamantinoma include pathological fracture( 23% of patients) [17] and neurological symptoms in spinal lesions.[18]

Physical Examination

Adamantinoma may present with bowing deformity of the tibia.[19]

Spinal lesions may be manifested by neurologic symptoms in addition to pain.

Laboratory Findings

Paraneoplastic hypercalcemia can be seen in tibial adamantinoma and pulmonary metastasis[20]

Electrocardiogram

There are no ECG findings associated with adamantinoma.

X-ray

An x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of adamantinoma include central or eccentric, multilocular lesion in tibia. The tumor is found in the diaphyseal location. Metaphyseal extention or only involvement of metaphysis is seen occationally. The lesions are well circumscribed surrounded ring-shaped densities ( soap -bubble appearance). The lesion are more intra-cortical, but if they destroy cortex, extracortical soft tisuue invasion can be seen. The periosteal reaction can be minimal to prominnet.[21]

Echocardiography or Ultrasound

There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with adamantinoma.

CT scan

CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. Findings on CT scan suggestive of adamantinoma include cortical involvement and the soft tissue extension if it exist.

Chest CT scan can detect pulmonary metastasis. [22]

MRI

MRI is helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. It is useful in detection distant cortical foci, soft tissue, and intramedullary extension. MRI is a very important diagnostic study for stating of tumor and tumor-free margins. Findings on MRI suggestive of adamantinoma include a solitary lobulated focus or multiple small nodules in one or more foci. Tumors demonstrate low signal intensity on T1-weighted images and high signal on T2-weighted images.[23]

Other Imaging Findings

Bone scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of adamantinoma. Findings on a nuclear medicine suggestive of adamantioma include:[24]

  • Increased blood flow in the region of the tumor
  • Increased accumulation of technetium-99m methylene diphosphate in the area of the tumor

Other Diagnostic Studies

There are no other diagnostic studies associated with adamantinoma.

Treatment

Medical Therapy

There is no medical therapy for adamantinoma. Radition therapy and chemotherapy are not effective. [25]

Surgery

Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for adamantinoma.

Primary Prevention

There are no established measures for the primary prevention of adamantinoma.

Secondary Prevention

There are no established measures for the secondary prevention of adamantinoma.
