Abstract

Primary bone tumours are rare, accounting for < 0.2% of malignant neoplasms registered in the EUROCARE (European Cancer Registry based study on survival and care of cancer patients) database [1]. Different bone tumour subtypes have distinct patterns of incidence, and each has no more than 0.3 incident cases per 100 000 per year. Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (ES) have a relatively high incidence in the second decade of life, whereas chondrosarcoma (CS) is more common in older age [2–4].
