title: Current limitations to the histopathological diagnosis of some frequently encountered bone tumours.
abstract: The final diagnosis of a bone tumour comes in many cases like the last piece of a puzzle which requires integration of clinical, imaging and pathological data. However there are situations in which a discrepancy exists between histology and imaging studies and where histology alone cannot be decisive. This paper reviews such situations.
