About Sarcoma

How often do bone sarcomas occur?

Bone sarcoma is an even more uncommon cancer than soft tissue sarcoma. They also account for less than 1 percent of all new cancer cases each year. As mentioned, there are approximately 2500 new cases of bone sarcoma in the United States each year. Approximately 60% of these cases will occur among children and adolescents under age 20.
