Bone Cancer - Osteosarcoma People think of bone cancer is an inherited disease. There is also a bone cancer is regarded as a curse of disease, perhaps because the case is relatively rare. But nevertheless, it is better if we more or less know about this bone cancer.
Broadly speaking, cancer of the bone is broken down into two types,
1. Metastatic bone cancer or more commonly referred to as secondary bone cancer. Bone cancer is caused by cancer type that already exist in other organs tubh before eventually spread to the bone. So instead of bone cancer. An example is lung cancer that spread to the bone where the cancer cells resemble cells of the lungs but in a bone that was attacked.
2. Primary bone cancer. Cancer of this one was derived from the bone itself. Included in the category of bone cancer are: Multiple Myeloma, Osteosarcoma, Fobrosarkoma, and Histiositoma Fobrosa malignant, Kondrosarkoma, Ewing tumors, and malignant lymphoma bone.
Multiple Myeloma is a bone cancer that most serinf found. These cancer cells derived from bone marrow that produce blood cells. Usually this type of bone cancer experienced by adults. This cancer can affect one or more bones so that the pain can appear in more than 1 temapt.
Osteosarcoma is a malignant bone tumor associated with periods of growth velocity during adolescence. Many types of bone cancer in children. The average disease is detected in children 15 years of age. And the incidence in boys and girls are equal, but that many were assaulted adolescent boys.
The cause of this cancer are not known for certain. But from some of the available evidence it seems likely that the disease is inherited huge. Osteosarcoma tends to grow in the femur (lower end), humerus (upper end) and tibia (upper end). End of the bone is an area where changes occur and the largest growth rate. However, osteosarcoma can also grow in other bones.
The most common symptom is pain experienced. In line with the growth of tumors, may also occur swelling, and limited movement. Tumors in the legs will cause the patient to walk lame. While tuomor in the arm will cause pain when the arm is used to lift something.
Swelling of the tumor may be warm taste and look a bit flushed. Early signs of this disease may be a broken bone which then becomes a tumor. Fractures in the growth of these tumors are called pathological fractures and bone is common after a routine movement.
The detection of this disease is by inspection:
1. X-rays of affected bones
2. CT scan of the affected bone
Blood tests (serum chemistry termsuk)
3. CT scan of the chest to see the spread to the lungs
4. Open biopsy
5. Scanning the entire bone to see the spread of his cancer.
Prior to surgery, chemotherapy to shrink the tumor. Chemotherapy is quite effective to kill tumor cells that had begun to spread. If it has not spread to the lungs, then the life expectancy reaches 60%. Approximately 75% of patients can survive for about 5 years after diagnosis of bone cancer.
Fibrosarcoma and malignant Fobrosa Histiositoma
These cancers originate from the soft tissue (connective tissue other than bone, such as ligaments, tendons, fat and muscle) and rarely originated from the bone. This cancer is usually found in elderly or middle.
The most commonly affected bones are the bones of the legs, arms, and jaw. Fibrosarcoma and malignant fibrous Histositoma similar to osteosarcoma in the form, location and symptoms. The treatment was the same.
Kondrosarkoma
Kondrosarkoma is a tumor composed of cells of cartilage (cartilage) are malignant. Most kondrosarkoma slow-growing or a low-grade tumors can be cured with surgery. However, some of which are high-grade tumors that tend to spread.
Kondrosarkoma must be entirely removed surgically because they do not respond to chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Limb amputation is rarely done. If the tumor is removed completely, 75% of patients will survive.
Ewing tumor
Ewing tumors appear at puberty when the bones grow very fast. These tumors are rarely found in children under the age of 10 years. Tumors can grow on any body part. However, the most frequent in long bones of the limbs, pelvis, or chest. Jga Tumors can grow in the skull or other flat bones.
Symptoms The most frequent complaint is pain and sometimes swelling in the affected bone. Patients experience fever amungkin jug. These tumors are easily spread to the lungs and other bones. At the time of diagnosis, the spread usually occurs in almost 30% of patients.
If a tumor is suspected, then conducted tests to determine the location and spread of tumors by:
1. X-ray skeletal bone
2. chest X-rays
3. CT scan of the chest
4. Bone scanning
5. tumor biopsy
Treatment is a combination of: chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, daktinomisin, doxorubicin, ifosfamide, etoposide), radiation therapy, tumor and surgical treatment to remove the tumor.
Bone Malignant Lymphoma
Bone Malignant lymphoma usually affects those aged 40-50 years. Cancer is derived from any bone or from elsewhere in the body, then spread to the bone. These tumors usually cause pain and swelling and bone damage. Treatment consists of a combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy
