Bone Tumors

Bones help in movement, giving structure to our body and hence are known as the supporting framework of the body. To learn more about your health, click here.

It is necessary to know more about the structure of the bone, to have an improved understanding of bone cancer.

Bone consists of a fibrous tissue called matrix on which calcium salts are laid down, as its outer part. The matrix is part of the outer membrane of the bone- the Periosteum.

Inside hollow bones, there is a soft tissue known as bone marrow. The bone marrow is found in a space called the Medullary cavity. The bone marrow can be either a fatty tissue only or a mixture of fat cells as well as blood generating cells. These blood generating cells in the bone marrow are responsible for the production of Red blood cells, White blood cells and Platelets, which are important components of blood.

At the two ends of a bone, there is a tissue known as cartilage which is soft but firm, acting as a cushion between bones.
The bone tissue or the osseous tissue contains two different kinds of cells. They are, Osteoblast and Osteoclast which are functionally known as the ‘bone forming cells’ and cells that dissolve or breakdown bone tissues, respectively.

The term ‘tissue’ is frequently mentioned above.  A tissue can be defined simply, as a group of cells who have a common function. Therefore, it is obvious out of the many cells that form a bone, any can develop to a cancer.

There are several types of bone cancer, such as ‘metastatic cancer’ a cancer that spreads elsewhere from its origin), bone marrow related cancers that gives rise to ‘multiple myeloma’, leukemia also commonly known as blood cancer) and lymphomas which commonly originates in the lymph nodes but occasionally origins from the bone marrow.

A bone tumor that starts in the bone is known as primary bone tumors and they are usually the main type of bone cancers. Some of the bone tumors do lead to bone cancers; however, not all bone tumors are cancerous.

The following are the names of some cancerous primary bone tumors:
Osteosarcoma – (also known as Osteogenic sarcoma) one of the most common primary bone cancers that start in the bone cells.
Chondrosarcoma a bone cancer that starts in the cartilage cells (known as the second most common primary bone cancer).
Ewing tumor (which is a bone cancer starting off either in bones or in other tissues)
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) mostly starting off in soft tissues than in bones
Fibrosarcoma (which is also similar to MFH)
Giant cell tumor of bone (which is less often found as a bone cancer- as it takes the non cancerous form)
Chordoma (a bone cancer that develops in the skull and bones of the spine).

All different types of bone cancers can be treated using, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery.
