Peripheral chondrosarcoma: ultrastructural investigation by transmission and scanning electron microscopy

M Fadda et al. Ital J Orthop Traumatol. 1991 Sep.

Abstract

Ultrastructural analysis by transmission and scanning electron microscopy was performed on two grade 1 peripheral chondrosarcomas which had arisen from a preexisting osteochondroma. This analysis allowed us to determine the morphologic changes in both the cell and the matrix and suggested a low grade of malignancy. We emphasize that ultrastructural analysis with scanning and electron microscopy is only valid when conducted on representative areas of the tumor.
