Cancellous Allograft
• Allograft
: Donor site morbidity↓ / Quantity ↑
→ Commonly used in bone tumor surgery
• Cancellous allograft
: Fill defect after curettage of bone tumor
MRI in Bone Tumors
• Follow-up modality for surveillance of recurrence
• Curettage + Cancellous allograft
→ MRI DDx. cancellous allograft vs. recurred tumor
• No report on MRI findings of cancellous allograft
Purpose
To investigate the MRI features of
• Cancellous allograft & their change over time
• Cancellous allograft vs. Recurred tumors
Reviewed (n=53)
Curettage and cancellous allograft between 2002~2011
MRI for follow-up
Metallic device, BMP, or calcium component (n=17)
Lost to follow-up within 1 year after imaging (n=2)
Analyzed (n=34)
Excluded (n=19)
Patient Selection
• Age: 27 years (11-64)
• Sex: M (18) F (14)
• Tumor typeChondroblastoma (11), LG chonsa (10), ABC (3), GCT (2), FD (2), SBC (2), IO lipoma (1), PVNS (1)
• Site Femur (12), tibia (8), pelvis (5), humerus (4), foot (4)
• Tumor size: 6.7 ± 6.3 cm
Patient Characteristics
• 1.5- or 3.0-Tesla MRI scanners
• Sequences• T1WI: spin-echo T1-weighted • T2WI: fast spin-echo T2-weighted • Enhanced T1: gadolinium-enhanced spin-echo T1WI
• Review by 2 independent authors
Acquisition of MRIs
• 66 MRIs in 34 patients 1 MRI: 17 patients ≥ 2 MRIs: 17 patients

Summary & Conclusion
• This study assessed the MRI features of cancellous allo-grafts & their change over time, and the differentiating fea-tures between cancellous allografts and recurred tumors.
Summary & Conclusion
• This study assessed the MRI features of cancellous allo-grafts & their change over time, and the differentiating fea-tures between cancellous allografts and recurred tumors.
• Cancellous allografts typically showed homogeneous inter-mediate or low SIs on T1, high SIs with speckled hypointen-sities on T2, and peripheral rim enhancements on enhanced T1.
Summary & Conclusion
• This study assessed the MRI features of cancellous allo-grafts & their change over time, and the differentiating fea-tures between cancellous allografts and recurred tumors.
• Cancellous allografts typically showed homogeneous inter-mediate or low Sis on T1, high SIs with speckled hypointen-sities on T2, and peripheral rim enhancements on enhanced T1.
• These typical features were maintained until 6 months and then gradually disappeared by 3 years.
Summary & Conclusion
• Graft incorporation occurred from periphery to center and were completed within 3 years.
Summary & Conclusion
• Graft incorporation occurred from periphery to center and were completed within 3 years.
• The single most differentiating feature of a recurred tumor was showing the similar pattern and SI of the primary tumor.
Summary & Conclusion
• Graft incorporation occurred from periphery to center and were completed within 3 years.
• The single most differentiating feature of a recurred tumor was showing the similar pattern and SI of the primary tumor.
• Careful interpretation is warranted when dealing with chon-droid tumors, especially for MRIs performed within 1 year of surgery.
