Bone Cancer
Bone cancer arises when cells within the bone multiply abnormally, forming a malignant tumor. It can start in the bone itself (primary) or spread from another site (secondary).
Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary management are key to improving outcomes.
Overview And Clinical Background
Bone cancer can affect any bone but is most common in the pelvis or long bones of the limbs.
It may cause pain, swelling, and weakened bone structure.
Symptoms, Signs And Presentation
Persistent bone pain, fractures without trauma, and localized swelling are typical presentations.
Symptoms worsen over time and may interfere with movement.
Diagnosis Methods And Investigations
Imaging And Laboratory Tests
Diagnosis requires imaging and tissue confirmation.
MRI or CT scans identify tumor extent while biopsy confirms malignancy.
Treatment Options And Surgical Techniques
Treatment is multidisciplinary—combining surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy.
Goal is to remove tumor and preserve limb function.
Recovery, Risks And Prognosis
Recovery depends on tumor type, size, and treatment response.
Early intervention offers higher survival and limb preservation rates.
