ABSTRACT
Introduction: malignant bone tumors constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms, representing between 15 and 20% of malignant bone lesions.
Objective: to know the prevalence of malignant bone tumors in ISSSTE Regional Hospital "General Ignacio Zaragoza".
Material and methods: a sample of 199 patients was obtained between 2018 and 2023, and the data were collected for subsequent statistical analysis.
Results: 102 women (51.3%) and 97 men (48.7%), with a higher prevalence in middle-aged adults (39.7%), followed by children and older adults (22.6% each), and young adults (15.1%). Osteosarcomas and Ewing sarcomas are more frequent in young patients. Chondrosarcomas and metastases are more common in older adults.
Conclusion: the insights derived from this study facilitate progress toward a more efficient and targeted management of malignant bone tumors, along with their contribution to knowledge about epidemiology of malignant bone tumors and their potential impact on improving the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions.
