Abstract

Bone pathology is one of the difficult subspecialties in surgical pathology. Several reasons are behind this concept including rarity, complexity and great morphological overlap between primary bone neoplasms. Multiple cases of bone neoplasms including primary and secondary neoplasms will be discussed highlighting the importance of combining clinical features, diagnostic imaging, pathological and molecular findings to reach a precise and specific diagnosis. Finally, a general approach to bone lesions will be discussed to avoid pitfalls in bone pathology. The presentation will highlights some common pitfalls in bone pathology with a simple approach to avoid mistakes/pitfalls in bone pathology for general pathologists and trainees.
