BONE TUMOR
Bone tumor is a cancer of bones that begins in any bone in the body. It most commonly affects the long bones that make up the arms and legs. There are several types of bone tumor. Some of the tumors occur primarily in children while other may only occur in adults.
It odes not include tumor that begins somewhere else and spreads up to the bones.
Symptoms of bone tumors-
The common signs and symptoms of bone tumor are
o Bone pain
o Swelling and tenderness near the affected area
o Broken bone
o Fatigue
o Unintended weight loss
Causes of bone tumors-
The exact cause of most bone tumor is not clear. Doctors know that bone tumor begin as an error in the DNA of the cells. The error results in growing and dividing of the cells in an uncontrolled way. These cells continue to live rather than dying at the set time. The mutated cells accumulate forming a tumor that can invade nearby structures and spread to other parts and organs of the body.
Treatment of bone tumor-
The treatment option for the bone tumor is based on the type of the cancer, its stage, the overall health of the patient, his age and the preference.
Types of bone cancer
Bone cancers are broken down into separate types based on the type of cell where the cancer began. The most common types of bone cancer include:
o Osteosarcoma- This type of tumor begins in the bone cells.
o Chondrosarcoma- It begins in cartilage cells that are commonly found on the ends of bones.
o Ewing’s sarcoma- It’s not clear where in bone Ewing’s sarcoma begins but research shows that it begins in nerve tissues.
The treatment usually involves surgery, chemotherapy, radiation or a combination of treatments.
Surgery
Surgery is done to remove the entire bone cancer. For the accomplishment of the same, doctors remove the tumor and a small portion of healthy tissue that surrounds it. There are different types of surgery to treat bone tumor which may include:
o Surgery to remove a limb
o Surgery to remove the cancer, but spare the limb
o Surgery for cancer that doesn’t affect the limbs.
Radiation therapy
Radiation therapy uses high power beams of energy such as X rays to kill cells that spread cancer or tumor. During this therapy, the patient is made to lie down on a table while a special machine moves around him and aims the energy beams at precise points on the body.
Radiation therapy is used in people with bone tumor that cannot be removed with the help of surgery. Radiation therapy is also sometimes used after surgery to kill any tumor cells that may be left behind. Those with advanced bone tumor, radiation therapy may help controlling signs and symptoms such as pain
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is drugs based treatment that uses chemicals to kill the cells spreading cancer. It is mostly give intravenously. The chemotherapy medication travel through out the patient’s body
It is often combined with radiation therapy before surgery to shrink a bone cancer to a more manageable size that allows the surgeon to perform a limb-sparing surgery.

Bone-shaped candy used to come in these Mr Bones coffins from Fleer. The candy was used to make a skeleton. These are the orange, yellow and red versions. A black version exist but I do not have it in my collection yet.

I had been hunting for the dog bones for over two weeks, Frank hides things. I could not locate them but today Frank led me to them. He had shoved them behind the hot water heater, they were pushed so far back that he could not get them - I had to use a coat hanger to get them.
Because of the risk of bears, I sat down to eat a meal of noodle soup about 100 yards from my campsite. Well, maybe not 100 yards, but close! I saw a flash of white just 10 yards to my right and decided to investigate. To my surprise, I was eating dinner by a whole bunch of bones. I'm guessing deer bones (but the teeth look too sharp for an herbivore to my untrained eye.) I have to admit, it was a bit spooky in the woods that night, just waiting for a predator to find me!

Three main cell types manage the constant remodeling of bone as it builds and disassembles itself in response to the body’s needs and resources.
An infographic shows a cross section of a bone and osteocytes (which maintain bone and communicate with other organs), osteoblasts (which build bone) and osteoclasts (which break down bone).

it had been a while, so we bought nenya a dog bone again. she was pretty happy. at first colby did not want her to take it outside, so she just held it in her mouth the whole time. any chance she got, she'd run to the garage door. so she got her way. she happily chomped away on it in the backyard.
Bones bring out the wild predator in this otherwise well domesticated and almost timid hound.
