Bone cancer or Orthopedic Oncology is a growing subspecialty within the field of Orthopedics. This field broadly has been focused on the diagnosis and treatment of benign and malignant bone tumors of the musculoskeletal system in different individuals. Bone and soft tissue tumors develop in the connective tissue of the body that includes bone, cartilage blood, and fat.

Bone cancer can be grown in any part of the bone but it tends to affect the pelvic region and the long bones present in the arms and legs the most. It is not a very common type of cancer and the cause of this cancer is still unknown. Some certain factors like hereditary and previous radiation exposures can be considered as the probable causes of bone cancer.
