What are the clinical manifestations of severe bone tumors?

People face greater health pressures in modern life, especially as pollution becomes more and more serious and people neglect taking care of their bodies, various previously rare diseases have emerged, casting a shadow on people's lives. For example, tumor is a malignant disease that causes great harm to the patient's health and may even cause death. For example, bone tumor is an extremely serious disease with a very low incidence rate, but it has been on the rise in recent years. The threat to people is increasing. Let’s take a look at the clinical manifestations of severe bone tumors. I hope everyone can understand it.

Osteoma, a disease name in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Osteoma is a tumor disease with the main symptoms of a lump as hard as a stone, tightly attached to the bone, and unable to be moved. Osteoma is a benign bone tumor that is more common in adolescents. More than 95% occur in the skull and paranasal sinuses.

Clinical manifestations:

The lump of osteoma is hard or tough, with clear boundaries, and the base is adhered to the bone and cannot be moved.

(1) Benign bone tumors develop slowly and usually stop growing at a certain age, usually without any symptoms. If the tumor is too large, it may become deformed or compress adjacent tissues and organs, causing corresponding symptoms. But there was no distant metastasis.

(ii) The malignant tumor grows rapidly and may even form a huge mass that is hard and protruding. The veins of the local skin are exposed. In addition to local deformity, severe pain, and functional impairment, there are also gradually worsening systemic symptoms, such as persistent fever, decreased appetite, weight loss, and dull complexion. It is more likely to metastasize to internal organs or other places.

Occurrence site

It is common in the skull, facial bones and mandible, usually asymptomatic, with a course of several years or decades. If it occurs in the inner plate of the skull, it may cause increased intracranial pressure and brain compression symptoms, such as dizziness, headache, and even epilepsy. When the tumor occurs in the outer plate of the skull, it can cause appearance deformity. If it occurs in the mandible, it often causes compression symptoms in the oral or nasal cavity. Osteomas outside the skull area can sometimes become malignant.

Testing

X-rays show that benign tumors have clear boundaries and a distinct demarcation line between the tumor and normal bone tissue, and generally there is no periosteal reaction. Malignant bone tumors are characterized by unclear tumor boundaries, bone destruction, and disordered bone structure.
