The multiple sclerotic osteogenic sarcoma of early childhood.
Two cases of sclerosing osteogenic sarcoma that occurred in early childhood are reported. They and the similar cases reviewed are unusual in their development at an unusually early age, their multicentric presentation and their densely sclerotic nature. These are uncommon manifestations of osteogenic sarcoma and are considered due to proliferative metastatic osteoid formation in areas of rapid bone growth.
