RESUMO

A malignant triton tumour is a malignant schwannoma with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation, and is a very rare occurrence. We describe the case of a 33-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1 who presented with paraplegia. Pathological examination of an intradural, extramedullary tumour excised at lumbar laminectomy demonstrated a malignant schwannoma with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation. We believe this is the first documented case of a malignant triton tumour of the spine (AU)

RESUMO

Two cases of benign osteoblastic tumors of the spine, occurring in young patients, and presenting as expanding osteolytic lesions with some central calcification and ossification, are described. It is suggested that they present a condition allied to, but usefully separated from, osteoid osteoma of bone. The name osteogenic fibroma of bone, proposed by Lichtenstien for this type of case, is accepted (Summary)
