“…The concept of differentiated adamantinoma has been described by Czerniak et al [5], and several similar cases have been reported under other names such as "juvenile intracortical adamantinoma" [1,13,15,20,22]. In contrast to classic adamantinoma, this type of adamantinoma is characterized by its age distribution in the first and second decades, an intracortical location, OFD-like histology, and scattered small nests of cells reacting positively for cytokeratin [5].…”

A clinicopathological and immunohistochemical study of osteofibrous dysplasia, differentiated adamantinoma, and adamantinoma of long bones

A clinicopathological and immunohistochemical study of 12 cases of osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD), two cases of differentiated adamantinoma, and five cases of adamantinoma of long bones is presented. Although OFD and differentiated adamantinoma showed similar radiologic findings, differentiated adamantinoma was more likely to be a recurrent lesion than osteofibrous dysplasia and seemed to require a more extensive surgical procedure. Immunohistochemically, cytokeratin- and vimentin-positive cells were seen in both OFD and differentiated adamantinoma. The positive cells were scattered in the former, and were both scattered and nest-like in the latter. Both these lesions, however, were negative for epithelial membrane antigen. Excluding two cases of Ewing-like adamantinoma, the other three cases of adamantinoma were also positive for cytokeratin and vimentin. These results suggest that these three lesions share the same histogenetic origin. The two cases of Ewing-like adamantinoma differ from tibial adamantinoma in their radiological, histological and immunohistochemical aspects, and seem to constitute a distinct variant of adamantinoma with a different histogenesis.

“…Several authors have supported this idea [reviewed in Park et al, 1993]. Further support for a relationship between OFD and adamantinoma comes from the fact that it is not uncommon for OFD to recur after curetting, or even excision [Springfield et al, 1994], that OFD can frequently be shown to contain epithelial cells [Ishida et al, 1992;Sweet et al, 1992], and from scattered reports of patients whose OFD apparently progressed to an adamantinoma [Johnson, 1972;Schajowicz and Santini-Araujo, 1989;Durroux et al, 1993;Springfield et al, 1994]. Czerniak et al [1989] proposed that adamantinoma occurred in two forms; the classic malignant tumor, and a second that contained small, inconspicuous, epidermal foci, occurred in a younger age group, and resembled typical OFD.…”

“…The authors proposed that OFD could also develop de novo. Although a number of authors have lent their support to this hypothesis [Ueda et al, 1991;Gaubert and Durroux, 1995;Kuruvilla and Steiner, 1998], it has not gained universal acceptance [Schajowicz and Santini-Araujo, 1989;Park et al, 1993;Springfield et al, 1994]. A number of authors have provided immunohistologic evidence of cell types common to OFD and adamantinoma.…”

Osteofibrous dysplasia: Two affected male sibs and an unrelated girl with bilateral involvement

Osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD) is a tumor-like bone lesion that occurs most often in the tibia, presenting as a painless swelling or anterior bowing. Radiographs show a well-circumscribed intracortical lucency, or multiple lucencies separated by sclerotic borders, associated with a diaphyseal expansion. The histogenesis of OFD and its possible relationships to fibrous dysplasia and to adamantinoma have been the subject of significant discussion and investigation. We have been unable to find any reports of familial OFD, and have found only two references to bilateral involvement. In this article, we report both bilateral and familial involvement, and suggest that more thorough investigation of patients and their families may uncover similar cases, and perhaps support a genetic component to the etiology of this condition.
