Abstract
|
|
|
Many of the major advances in present-day understanding of bone tumors have been
made in the last two decades. Neoplasms of bone occur sporadically and the
management of certain malignant tumors of bone remains among the most perplexing
problems of clinical medicine despite all the bold therapeutic measures including ablative
surgery, with or without adjunctive radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Much has been written in recent years about diagnostic difficulties and pitfalls for the
pathologist. In spite of significant advances in the roentgenologic diagnosis of bone
tumors X-ray findings alone are sometimes misleading. The pathologist's diagnosis is
still the crucial determining factor in planning appropriate treatment.
It has become a cliche to emphasize the necessity for the close liaison between
surgeon, radiologist and pathologist to arrive at a correct diagnosis of a lesion suspected
of being a bone tumor.
This collective review includes classification of bone tumors, their incidence among
Koreans, and also emphasizes the importance of cooperation among pathologist,
radiologist and surgeon in diagnosis of bone tumors.
