Bones Cancer

There are three types of bone cancer: Osteosarcoma is the most common variant. It develops in the

new tissue of growing bones (osteoid). Chondrosarcoma: originates in the cartilage between their

ages of 50 and 60. Ewing's Sarcoma: born in the immature nervous tissue, usually

in the bone marrow. It is more common in the growing age.

Symptoms

Bone cancer can also interfere with normal movements and weaken the tissues that cause fractures. You can also experience weakness, fatigue, anemia, fever and weight loss

Diagnosis : To diagnose bone cancer, the doctor asks about the patient's history and makes a complete medical examination. Your doctor may suggest a blood test to determine the level of an enzyme called alkaline phosphatase. You can find a lot of alkaline phosphatase in the blood when cells that form bone tissue are very active-when children are growing, "when it is healing a broken bone or when a disease or a tumor causes production of tissue abnormal bone. Since it is usually possible to find high levels of this enzyme in growing children and adolescents, this test is not a completely reliable indicator of bone cancer.X-rays can show the location, size and shape of a bone tumor. If X-rays suggest that a tumor may be cancerous, your doctor may

recommend special imaging tests such as a bone scan.
