Chondrosarcoma and other rare bone sarcomas.
The clinical staging of bone tumors, even rare ones, has been much improved with the availability of better imaging techniques. Once diagnosis of a rare bone tumor has been made, close consultation between clinician, radiologist, and pathologist is essential for optimal treatment. Recent advances in the staging procedures and better assessment of prognostic factors should allow for a more optimal individualized treatment plan.
