Oncology in India
diagnosis and treatment of bone cancer
Although bone cancer can start in any bone in the body, the pelvis or the long bones in the arms and legs are the most frequently affected. Less than 1% of all malignancies are bone cancers, making them extremely uncommon. In actuality, benign bone tumors are significantly more prevalent than malignant ones. Cancers that start elsewhere in the body and "metastasize" (spread) to the bone are not considered to be "bone cancer." Instead, those tumors are given their original starting points as names, such as bone metastasizing breast cancer. While some types of bone cancer usually affect adults, others mostly affect youngsters. The most common form of treatment is surgical removal, but chemotherapy and radiation therapy are other options. Choosing to have surgery or chemotherapy
