An osteosarcoma; a bone surface that is grooved, raised, or uneven.
The word ‘osteosarcoma’ comes from the Greek words ‘ostos’ meaning ‘bone’ and’sarcoma’ meaning ‘cancer.’ A bone tumor originates from the bone tissue, growing into the bone and causing it to grow into another part of the body.
An osteosarcoma is a rare cancer that begins on the bone’s surface and eventually spreads throughout the bone. Osteosarcoma is actually a tumor of bone, but the cancer cells invade the surrounding bone and kill it by destroying the normal metabolism and nutrients of the bone tissue. The cancer cells also destroy the bone’s protective structure called the cortex. Because of this, the tumor is called a tumor of bone rather than an osteosarcoma.
Osteosarcoma is also called a metastatous tumor. Tumors that spread to other parts of the body are called sarcomas. There are actually two types of sarcomas. The first, osteosarcoma, is the most common and is what most people think of when they hear the terms bone sarcoma and bone cancer. Another type of sarcoma is fibrosarcoma.
What actually is the difference between osteosarcoma and fibrosarcoma? The term osteosarcoma is often used to describe a tumor that grows in the bone, while fibrosarcoma is a tumor that spreads into soft tissues. But the term “osteosarcoma” is often used to describe any tumor that grows in soft tissues and bone. In a bone sarcoma, the tumor makes bone look healthy.
A groove or furrow in a bone is called a bone sarcoma. Bones are composed of long bones made up of long bones. These are the bones that make up our legs and arms. These bones are the part of our body that we use to walk, run, and dance. When they are destroyed, however, they can cause the person to have a tumor called a sarcoma. Sometimes, a person will have a sarcoma that grows within the bone.
Sarcomas can also grow on and around other bone cells. Sometimes this type of sarcoma may grow in a person’s kidneys, a person’s liver, or a person’s lungs. This means that you could have a kidney tumor or liver tumor.
If you have a sarcoma, it can be very difficult to treat. The sarcoma can be very serious and even fatal if not properly diagnosed and treated. Sarcomas are usually more common in people over 50.
Sarcomas can include many different types of cells and it can be difficult to tell what type the cancer is. A sarcoma is often a single cell that causes many other types of cells to grow.
The primary treatment for sarcomas is surgery. Most sarcomas are treated by removal of the tumor from the body and reconstruction of the body. However, there are a number of different types of sarcomas and they can grow and spread quickly. Depending on what type the sarcoma is, it can be very serious and even deadly.
