Osteoblastic and fibroblastic multicentric osteosarcoma.
Bone sarcomas are uncommon tumours, of which osteosarcoma is the least rare, as well as the third most common malignant tumour in childhood, appearing usually between the 10 and 20 years of age. The case the authors present in this work is of a patient suffering from a long-standing condition encompassing skin and soft tissue lesions. After multiple medical treatments, the patient was diagnosed with squamous osteosarcoma, which required aggressive surgical management and chemotherapy.
