Excerpt

Primary bone tumors are rare. It is estimated that 3010 individuals (1680 male and 1330 female) were diagnosed with malignancies of bone and joints in 2013 in the United States. [1] The yearly incidence is about 0.9 per 100,000. In comparison, the 2013 incidence of prostate and breast cancer was estimated to be 238,590 and 234,580 respectively. [1] The rarity of this entity together with the non-specific clinical symptoms and complex imaging findings, make this a challenging diagnosis for clinicians. [2‐4] However, early and accurate diagnosis is the key to appropriate treatment and better clinical outcome. …
