Bone tumor refers to a neoplastic growth of tissue in bone. Abnormal growths found in the bone can be either benign or malignant , the later may be classified as primary tumors, which originate in bone or from bone derived cells and tissues, and secondary tumors which originate in other sites and spread to the skeleton. Benign bone tumors occur more frequently than malignant tumors. They are osteomas, enchondromas, osteoblastoma and osteochondromas. Some of benign bone tumors require no treatment, and the remainder can usually be cured with surgical resection. The clinical presentation of palpable swelling, pathological fracture, pain or restriction of motion gives this group its importance
