Metastatic carcinoma in a medieval period skeleton from Croatia – a case study
Archaeological excavations of the Medieval ‘Njive’ – Ivandol site resulted in the discovery of a total of 37 burials. Even though the skeletal material was not in a good state of preservation, extensive osteoblastic and osteolytic lesions (approx. 10×10mm in diameter) were observed in an adult male skeleton aged to more than 60 years at time of death. Most of the macroscopically observable lesions were located around the pelvic and the thorax area. Radiographic analysis revealed numerous lesions within trabecular bone that have not penetrated the cortex, and were located throughout the body. Radiographic analysis was carried out using MDCT unit (Emotion 16 ; Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). Isometric 1.5 mm slices were obtained using 16x1.2 mm with reconstruction increment 1.5. 3D maximum intensity projection (MIP), volume rendering technique (VRT) and multiplanar reconstructions (MPR) provided more details of the bone cavities. Based on patient’s age at the time of death, permeative pattern of lesion and multiple lesions differential diagnosis would include metastatic disease, and multiple myeloma.
