An Analysis of The Pattern and Frequency of Primary Malignant Bone Tumors in Nassyriah

Bone tumors are uncommon lesions and account for only 0.2% of all malignant tumors. Primary malignant bone tumors develop from bony tissue and are categorized according to their location of origin and the cell type that makes up the tumor. This research aims to report on the prevalence, geographic distribution, and comparison of malignant bone tumors in Nassyriha province. Malignant bone tumors were studied in 182 people (119 men and 63 females) between February 2021 and February 2023. Their ages varied widely (from 5 to 70), with the second decade being the most prevalent. The most common cancer was osteosarcoma, which accounted for 34.62 percent, followed by Ewing's sarcoma (24.73), chondrosarcoma (13.74), multiple myeloma (11.53), malignant giant cell tumors (8.14%), fibrosarcoma (2.74%), and 2 instances of chordoma (1.10%). None of the six instances (3.30%) could be definitively diagnosed. Primary malignant bone tumors are rising, with men being disproportionately impacted. Information gleaned from this study will be useful for both researchers and clinicians.

Abstract

Bone tumors are uncommon lesions and account for only 0.2% of all malignant tumors. Primary malignant bone tumors develop from bony tissue and are categorized according to their location of origin and the cell type that makes up the tumor. This research aims to report on the prevalence, geographic distribution, and comparison of malignant bone tumors in Nassyriha province. Malignant bone tumors were studied in 182 people (119 men and 63 females) between February 2021 and February 2023. Their ages varied widely (from 5 to 70), with the second decade being the most prevalent. The most common cancer was osteosarcoma, which accounted for 34.62 percent, followed by Ewing's sarcoma (24.73), chondrosarcoma (13.74), multiple myeloma (11.53), malignant giant cell tumors (8.14%), fibrosarcoma (2.74%), and 2 instances of chordoma (1.10%). None of the six instances (3.30%) could be definitively diagnosed. Primary malignant bone tumors are rising, with men being disproportionately impacted. Information gleaned from this study will be useful for both researchers and clinicians.
