The current retrospective study aims at obtaining data related to anatomical location and extent, radiological presentation and choice of surgical treatment policy of metastatic bone disease located at the shoulder girdle, upper and lower extremities, and pelvic girdle.
Based on the data ascertained, the clinical and radiological presentation as well as treatment strategy of metastatic bone disease with regards to histological type and medical history will be analysed.

Aim of this study is to analyse the modalities of diagnosis of LR in high-grade osteosarcoma, pattern of recurrence, treatment of LR and factors influencing post-LR survival (PLRS) focusing on the role of second line chemotherapy, margins and type of surgery

Unicameral bone cysts (UBC), also called simple bone cysts, Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC) (and Fibrous Dysplasia (FD) lesions) can present as benign fluid filled cavities that can enlarge over time, leading to thinning and with that weakening of the bone. Both bone cysts and FD predominantly occur in children and adolescents, with a peak age between 3 and 14 years [1-3]. The annual prevalence and incidence are both estimated at ±0.3 per 100.000 people for UBC [4, 5]. For ABC, the annual prevalence is estimated at ±0.3, with an annual incidence ranging from 0.14 to 0.54 per 100.000 people [1, 4-6]. However, the true prevalence and incidence is difficult to estimate due to clinically silent cases and spontaneous regression. For the same reason the incidence and prevalence of FD is unknown and no estimation is given in literature.

Dear colleagues, hereby we invite you to participate in a multicentric retrospective study “Tumors at the elbow –
clinical and oncological results after resection and endoprosthesis replacement”.
Bone and soft tissue tumors involving the elbow are very rare. There is a limited knowledge about
clinical and oncological results of distal humerus and/or proximal ulna resection and endoprosthetic elbow
reconstruction: in the last two decades only a few publications analyzed this problem, including per study
at average about 20 patients. These studies include numerous various parameters (different implants,
various diagnosis…), making the task of summarizing the results not easy.

Malignancy during pregnancy is a very rare entity with an estimated incidence of 1/1000 pregnancies.
Individual therapeutic customization is the only choice of treatment with respect to the health of the
mother, and her child.
The occurrence of sarcoma during pregnancy is even more exceptional, with about 140 reported cases
in the accessible literature. 60% is reported as primary soft tissue sarcomas, 40% as primary bone
sarcomas. No true systematic study has been undertaken to investigate the whole diagnostic,
therapeutic and prognostic concept of these sarcomas during pregnancy as an ‘entity’.

Fibroma of bone is a rare, locally aggressive bone tumor. Once it was called the osseous counterpart of extra-abdominal desmoid tumor, because of the histological aspects. In 2013, the WHO described the microscopic appearance of desmoplastic fibroma as being composed of slender, spindle to stellate cells with minimal cytological atypia and abundant collagenous matrix.

Clear cell chondrosarcoma is a rare variant of chondrosarcoma, behaving as a low grade malignant bone tumor and characterized by a proliferation of tumor cells with clear cytoplasm.
Clear cell chondrosarcomas account for around 2% of all chondrosarcomas. They have been described in most bones of the body but usually affect the proximal epiphysis of the humerus or femur.
