Osteogenic sarcoma is the most common type of malignant bone cancer, accounting for 35% of primary bone malignancies. It is a malignant mesenchymal tumor in which cancerous cells produce bone matrix. 50% of cases occur around the knee. Common risk factors include age, radiation exposure, certain bone diseases, injuries, and genetics. Typical symptoms are bone fracture, bone pain, and limping if the tumor is in the leg.
