Imaging features of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors.

Osseous PMTs are commonly osteolytic with a narrow zone of transition. Both bone and soft tissue PMTs often contain matrix and areas of dark T2 signal on MRI, independent of the presence of matrix. However, PMTs may mimic other bone and soft tissue neoplasms, including fibrous dysplasia, tenosynovial giant cell tumor, and even atypical lipomatous tumor. As such, clinical presentation and laboratory correlation are critical to PMT recognition and accurate diagnosis.
