Abstract

Background: Bone tumours are less commonly encountered lesions, and they pose a definite diagnostic challenge. Aims and Objective: The aims and objective of this study is to determine the incidence of bone tumours reported to the tertiary care rural teaching hospital and correlate various bone tumours with age and gender and anatomical location. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study of all bone lesions was done for 5 years from January 2013 to December 2017 in departments of Orthopedics, Radiology and Pathology at a tertiary care teaching hospital, central rural India. A total of 216 cases of different bone lesions were studied. Relevant history, clinical data, and radiological reports were obtained from the concerned departments. Results: The

present study shows that the incidence of benign bone lesions is 66.2%. The malignant bone lesions accounted for 33.8%. The younger males were commonly affected (20.4%). The peak age incidence of bony lesions was found to be 21–30 years in 27.31% of the cases. Among the neoplastic lesions, giant cell tumour (35.2%) and osteosarcoma (16.2%) were the most common benign and malignant tumours, respectively. Conclusion: Benign bone tumours were the most common tumours.
Among the bony tumours, giant cell tumour is the most common benign tumour, and osteosarcoma was the common malignant lesions. The clinical data, radiology, and histopathology all when correlated help to establish the correct diagnosis of bone tumours.
