BENIGN TUMOR BONE and handling
Definition of tumor or neoplasm is an umbrella term used to describe the growth of mass (solid / solid) or abnormal tissue in the body. This mass arises as a result of an imbalance of growth and regeneration of cells or tumor is a collection of abnormal cells formed by cells that grow continuously are not limited to, not coordinated with the surrounding tissue and are not useful for the body.
The incidence of some neoplasms bekaitan bone with age. Anatomic locations also have specificity, ie the most common occurring in long metaphysical areas, namely the distal femur, proximal tibia and proximal humerus. Based on the research found that the biggest trigger the occurrence of bone tumors are genetic factors. The initial symptoms are common in the form of prolonged pain in the bones. This pain may arise as a result of trauma impact, but could not. Not infrequently found patients initially it did not feel pain, but swelling of the bone. Interestingly, this tumor potential attack patients under the age of 20 years.
Classification of bone tumors, namely primary and secondary (metastatic). Primary bone tumors are divided into benign tumors (benign) and malignant tumors (malignant). In Indonesia alone, the term refers to a tumor over benign tumors. tumors are benign, does not always mean 'harmless', although most are usually harmless. A benign tumor (benign tumor) can still evolving, and could cause damage to the tissues, nerves or organs nearby. Depending on the location and magnitude, the tumor can still be a serious illness and life-threatening, such as brain tumors.
Benign neoplasms of bone ditatalaksanai with excision or curettage. Bone defect was closed with bone grafts. When you disturb the surrounding tissue, the doctor may suggest surgical removal (surgery). Currently surgical techniques have been developed rapidly, even involving laser surgery technology, or cryosurgery (freezing) tumors.

Anatomy and physiology BONE
Anatomy and physiology SYSTEM MUSKULOSKLETAL (BONE)
Muskuloskletal system is supporting the body shape and take care of the movement. The main component of connective tissue system is muskuloskletal. This system consists of bones, joints, skeletal muscles, tendons, ligaments, Ø exchanges, and a dedicated network that connects these structures.
