Which of the following is a pulsatile tumour?
Correct Answer: Osteoclastoma
Description: Both osteoclastoma and telangiectatic osteosarcoma can present as pulsatile tumours. However, the best answer here is osteoclastoma, because, telangiectatic osteosarcoma is a less common variant of osteogenic sarcoma. Further, telangiectatic osteosarcoma can be pulsatile in very rare cases. So, the overall frequency is very less.
