Metastatic spread of osteosarcoma to the temporal bone in a patient with Paget's disease: a case report.
Secondary tumors involving the temporal bone are comparatively rare. We report a case of secondary osteosarcoma presenting in the temporal bone which arose from a primary lesion in the tibia in a patient with Paget's disease. To our knowledge secondary osteosarcoma of the temporal bone has never previously been described.
