  1. osteogenic sarcoma

    Osteogenic sarcoma, also known as Osteosarcoma, is a type of cancer that originates in the cells that form bones. It is the most common type of primary bone cancer, primarily affecting children, teenagers, and young adults. It often occurs in the long bones of the body such as the arms (humerus) and legs (femur or tibia), with a higher frequency in the area around the knee. Its typical symptoms include pain in the affected bone, swelling, and decreased joint mobility. Treatment usually involves chemotherapy and surgery, and sometimes radiotherapy. The prognosis often depends on factors such as age, the location of the tumor, and whether the cancer has spread (metastasized) to other parts of the body.
