Bone sarcoma, also known as bone cancer, encompasses several types of malignant tumors that originate in the bone tissue. Common types include osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and Ewing sarcoma, each arising from different types of cells within bones. Symptoms often include pain at the tumor site, swelling, and fractures. Treatment generally involves a combination of surgery to remove the tumor, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, depending on the specific type of sarcoma, its location, and stage at diagnosis. Early detection and aggressive treatment are crucial for improving outcomes and reducing the risk of metastasis.
