title: [Incidence of primary benign and malignant neoplasms and bone pseudotumoral lesions. An epidemiologic analysis of 585 cases diagnosed at the Faculdade de Medicina of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais].
abstract: The authors present an epidemiological study of 585 primary bone neoplasms and tumor-like lesions in order to investigate their incidence and distribution according to age, sex and skeletal location. A statistical agreement between the pertinent literature and the collected data was found. In this series, the most common benign neoplasms were the osteochondroma (45.3%) followed by chondroma (19.6%). Among the intermediate and malignant neoplasms, osteosarcoma was the most frequent (30.0%) followed by myeloma (16.0%). Fibrous dysplasia accounted for 46.6% of all tumor-like lesions, followed by solitary bone cyst (18.6%).
