Patent Pending Osteosarcoma is a cancerous bone tumor. Specifically, it is an aggressive malignant neoplasm--arising from primitive transformed cells of mesenchymal origin (and thus a sarcoma)--that exhibits osteoblastic differentiation and produces malignant osteoid.[1] Osteosarcoma is the most common histological form of primary bone cancer.[2] It is most prevalent in children and young adults.
