Abstract
The most common primary bone cancer is Osteosarcoma, a neoplasm thought to arise from bone-forming mesenchymal stem cells. Musculoskeletal radiologists, pathologists and clinicians are needed to interpret imaging findings and tissue samples to make a definitive diagnosis and establish a prognosis for the better enhancement towards good results with more prolonged disease-free survival, including imagery and histological profile, to make an accurate diagnosis and decide the best course of treatment, it's essential to compare gross, radiographic, and microscopic findings. If the results and quality of life are to be improved, an interprofessional team approach is needed.
