Incidence of primary benign and malignant neoplasms and bone pseudotumoral lesions. An epidemiologic analysis of 585 cases diagnosed at the Faculdade de Medicina of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais

The authors present an epidemiological study of 585 primary bone neoplasms and tumor-like lesions in order to investigate their incidence and distribution according to age, sex and skeletal location. A statistical agreement between the pertinent literature and the collected data was found. In this series, the most common benign neoplasms were the osteochondroma (45.3%) followed by chondroma (19.6%). Among the intermediate and malignant neoplasms, osteosarcoma was the most frequent (30.0%) followed by myeloma (16.0%). Fibrous dysplasia accounted for 46.6% of all tumor-like lesions, followed by solitary bone cyst (18.6%).
