Neoplasms of the Scapula

Neoplasms of the Scapula

Abstract

1729 he scapula is a small bone in which many neoplasms can develop. Few radiology articles report the types and appearances of these tumors. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society has developed a classification system for shoulder girdle tumors that divides the scapula into two zones [1]: the acromial–glenoid complex comprises the S2 region and the blade–spine portion comprises the S1 region (Fig. 1). The system helps provide a functional classification for resections and reconstructions and a logical division of the abnormalties that develop in the scapula. Neoplasms of the S1 region include those that commonly develop in the flat bones (i.e., Ewing’s sarcoma, multiple myeloma, and lymphoma). Neoplasms of the S2 region include those that commonly develop at the ends of the bone (i.e., giant cell tumors and aneurysmal bone cysts) [2]. We describe bone neoplasms that develop in the scapula and present examples of these tumors on radiographs, CT scans, and MR images.
