Intracranial osteosarcomas: report of four cases and review of the literature.
Four cases of intracranial osteosarcoma are reported. In three cases the tumors were primary neoplasms arising from the sellar region, base of the occiput and the parieto-occipital area. One case represented osteosarcoma metastatic to the cerebellum, a site not previously described, from a primary tumor at the femur. In addition, the current literature on intracranial osteosarcoma is reviewed.
