Cytopathology of
Osteolytic Lesions in Bone

   Dr Genevieve Warner Learmonth



    Cytopathologist / Histopathologist,
    Cytopathology Laboratory, Groote Schuur Hospital
    University of Cape Town
Lytic lesions in Bone
 Lytic lesions are easily aspirated using a
  Jam Shedi needle.
 Most lytic lesions in bone are metastatic
  tumours.
 However infectious lesions of bone due to
  Tuberculosis and opportunistic infections
  due to HIV/AIDS are becoming more
  common in South Africa.
 Metabolic diseases can also present as lytic
  lesions in bone
Bony lesion:
 A shepherdess aged 60 years
has difficulty in walking.

X Ray: knee joint destroyed.

Clinical Diagnosis: ?
Aneurysmal Bone Cyst.
Jam Shedi needle aspirated
clear fluid for Cytology.
Clear Fluid with scanty translucent
hooklets and laminated membrane
Clinical Impression:
                          Note extensive involvement
                           of tibia, fibula, knee joint
                           space, patella and soft
                           tissues.
                          No clinical signs of
                           inflammation
                          No sinus formation
                          No pain
                          No clinical evidence of
                           parathyroid dysfunction.
                          No renal disease
Lytic lesion in Clavicle. Scolices and Rostellum of hooklets
Histology of lytic lesion in clavicle, cross section
of scolex, and laminated membrane
Life cycle of Echinococcus
granulosus in South Africa
A wolf in sheep’s clothing
TUBERCULOSIS in BONE

35 year old woman presents with
pain in lumbar area for months, then
sudden paraplegia
X-rays show lytic lesions in lumbar vertebrae
Jam Shedi needle aspirate yields necrotic
material.
Cytology: Papanicolaou stain
Collapse of spine with Kyphosis
Necrotising Inflammation, no
evidence of granulomata
Rare Langhan’s cell
Ragged fragments of bone
TB bacilli, ZN stain and
autofluorescence with
Papanicolaou stain using LED
Histology ---Necrotising inflammation.
No granulomata.
   Drug-susceptible TB and MDR-TB are
    spread the same way. TB germs are put
    into the air when a person with TB
    disease of the lungs or throat coughs,
    sneezes, speaks, or sings. These germs
    can float in the air for several hours,
    depending on the environment. Persons
    who breathe in the air containing these
    TB germs can become infected.
TB and HIV ---the terrible twins
When screening a slide, note carefully what you
observe, no matter how odd it may seem
   Difficult to reach with health services
