Abstract
|
|
|
|
Musculoskeletal sarcoma metastasizes to various sites in the body. The most common metastsis site is the lung, followed less frequently by the skeleton, brain, intra-abdominal organs, lymph node, and pleura. The metastasis of musculoskeletal sarcoma showed various manifestations, which was seen as a nonspecific finding. Metastatic lesions display similar and characteristic features, which include calcification of primary musculoskeletal sarcoma. These features may provide an important diagnostic clue when seen on CT findings. We present a review of the abdominal CT findings in 5 patients with calcified metastasis arising from musculoskeletal sarcoma.
