A 35-year-old woman presented with a painful swelling in the left distal radius that had been present for 1 year. Radiography and computerized tomography revealed a sclerotic surface lesion that had grown over the year and eroded the cortex. Histological examination demonstrated two distinct components: a cartilaginous low- to moderate-grade osteosarcoma on the surface and a high-grade osteosarcoma in the intramedullary component. This case is uncommon in two aspects: the radius is a rare site for such a tumor and the dedifferentiation was revealed at the time of the first surgery and was not secondary to recurrence.

D018217 Osteosarcoma, Juxtacortical A form of osteogenic sarcoma of relatively low malignancy, probably arising from the periosteum and initially involving cortical bone and adjacent connective tissue. It occurs in middle-aged as well as young adults and most commonly affects the lower part of the femoral shaft.
