The appearance of osteogenic sarcoma, arising in unusual sites such as the ribs, the mandible, the hard palate, the calcaneus, and a vertebral body is illustrated, and the lytic form of osteogenic sarcoma is illustrated as well. This review is intended to acquaint radiologists with the appearance of osteogenic sarcomas arising in unusual locations, as well as with the lytic form of osteogenic sarcoma which is unusual in appearance and may be difficult to identify even when it arises in typical locations.
