[Clinical manifestations of giant cell tumor of bone]
Abstract:
Over the period of past five years, in the department of tumours of the locomotorium of the Institute of Oncology, 170 patients with giant cell tumor of the bone who ranged from 7 to 72 years old were examined. Of these, 152 patients were cured, 14 experienced recurrences of the tumour after the treatments administered, four patients died within different time periods after the treatment conducted as a result of metastizing of the tumour into different organs and systems (lungs, liver, bony skeleton).

What is the Skeletal System?
Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Gross Anatomy of Bone
The diaphysis is the tubular shaft that runs between the proximal and distal ends of the bone. The walls of the diaphysis are composed of dense and hard compact bone made of numerous osteons — the functional unit of the compact bone. The hollow region in the diaphysis is called the medullary cavity, which harbors the bone marrow. In infants and children, this marrow cavity is filled with red marrow, whereas in adults, it...
Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
