The incidence for some bony tumors is associated with their location within a bone, the age of the client, and with certain types that are more prevalent in adolescents, who are undergoing rapid changes in their skeletal structures. Treatment of bone tumor is based on the location, size, and staging. Radiation and chemotherapies have been successfully used to treat many benign and metastatic tumors, whereas other tumors are best treated with surgical excision and limb salvage procedures.
