This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiological characteristics of bone tumors. A retrospective study conducted from 2022 to 2025 included 41 patients aged 5-60 years, with all diagnoses confirmed histopathologically. According to the results, malignant tumors predominated (70.7%), with osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma being the most common. A comprehensive clinical and radiological assessment plays an important role in the early detection and differential diagnosis of bone tumors.
Keywords
