A diagnostic approach to bone tumours.

Flanagan AM, Lindsay D · Pathology

Sarcoma subtypes

Abstract

In this review we discuss an approach to diagnosing primary bone tumours, namely the cartilaginous, bone-forming, giant cell-rich, fibro-osseous and round cell neoplasms. Less common lesions including chordoma are also discussed. The value of integrating clinical, histopathological and relevant radiological features is emphasised with a view to providing the general histopathologist with a methodical approach to reaching an accurate diagnosis.
