Of the 242 cases of osteosarcoma recorded in the Swedish Cancer Registry for the years 1958 through 1968 only one was found to represent telangiectatic osteosarcoma. Another case was recently diagnosed in our department. The characteristic morphologic features of these neoplasms were anaplastic stroma, high mitotic activity, osteoid-formation, widely anastomosing blood spaces, and alkaline phosphatase activity. The experience gathered indicates that telangiectatic osteosarcoma constitutes a histopathologic variant of genuine osteosarcoma with a serious prognosis, necessitating the same kind of treatment as for the genuine tumour.Downloads
