Abstract

Pathologists infrequently see cases of bone tumours, which are rare entities, and their diagnosis is challenging. To achieve the correct diagnosis and for patients to be offered optimal treatment, it is critical that a multidisciplinary specialised team is involved. The last decade has seen exceptional advances in the molecular classification of bone tumours, which have not only made reaching diagnoses easier, but also makes the subspeciality an exciting area of research. Bone tumours are classified based on their histological features, irrespective of the anatomical site in which the tumour presents; however, not every tumour fits nicely into these categories as some share features. Bone tumours must be diagnosed in the context of the radiology, patient's symptoms, signs and family history. This article reviews key clinical, histologic features of bone tumours and highlights the recent advances made in understanding the pathology of bone lesions in the head and neck region.
