Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) in the foot is a rare condition. We report a case of CMF in a 7-year-old girl, affecting the distal phalanx of the great toe. Radiographs revealed a lytic lesion involving the entire distal phalanx, with destruction of both the medial and lateral cortices, while the articular surfaces remained intact.

Plasmacytomas are rare monoclonal neoplastic plasma cell proliferations in soft tissue or bone, with clival plasmacytomas being extremely rare and occasionally presenting with light chain deposition disease (LCDD). While imaging findings for clival plasmacytomas have shown variable T2 signal characteristics, complete T2 signal loss has not been previously reported. We present a case of a 61-year-old female found to have a 1.

Introduction: Bone spinal metastases disrupt the bone homeostasis, inducing a local imbalance in the bone formation and/or resorption, with consequent loss of the structural optimisation of the vertebrae and increase of the risk of fracture. Little is known about the microstructure of the metastatic tissue, the microstructure of the tissue surrounding the lesion, and how it does compare with vertebrae with no lesions observed on the biomedical images. A comprehensive assessment of the microstructural properties of the entire vertebral body can be obtained with micro computed tomography.
