ABSTRACT
Musculoskeletal tumors may be benign, which have a variable and unpredictable behavior pattern, or malignant, which have to be treated promptly and appropriately, as they are very aggresive. The diagnosis and treatment have changed, as new surgical techniques, biocompatible materials and chemo- and radiotherapy drugs have been added to the therapeutic armamentarium. The current purpose of oncologic orthopedics is to preserve function and its priority is a good quality of life. This paper describes the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions.
