Although stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a curative treatment option for stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), limited data are available regarding chest wall (CW) toxicities during an extended follow-up of over 10 years. We report an unusual case of a bone tumor-like CW mass lesion with pathological rib fractures observed 13 years after SBRT for peripheral lung cancer. Despite the initial suspicion of radiation-induced sarcoma, a subsequent incisional biopsy revealed no evidence of malignancy, and a definitive diagnosis of osteonecrosis was made. Thus, long-term observation of over 10 years is required to identify late chronic complications following SBRT.

Primary chronic osteomyelitis (PCO) is a rare non-bacterial autoinflammatory severe disease that most often affects children aged 7 to 12 years and is much less common in adults. The most common areas of lesion are long tubular bones, however, any bones of the skeleton, including the lower jaw, can be affected. The clinical picture of this disease is complex and similar to many tumor and tumor-like bone lesions, which often leads to a significant delay in making a correct diagnosis.

The hip joint is home to a diverse range of neoplasms, as well as many pseudo lesions, including post-traumatic, infectious, and degenerative processes. Through careful evaluation of the clinical context, location, and imaging features, these entities can be distinguished, enabling accurate and efficient diagnosis. While not exhaustive, this article reviews a selection of benign, malignant, and non-neoplastic lesions affecting the hip bones, cartilage, and soft tissues, focusing on their notable imaging and pathologic features.

Background/aim: Patients with bone tumors in their femurs are at risk of developing pathological fractures. Tumors with high fracture risk, especially fragile malignant lesions, are treated surgically. However, it is difficult to estimate bone strength based on clinical and radiographic findings.
