Why are some cancers called sarcomas?
|
|
A sarcoma is a cancer or tumor that starts in the bone or in the connective tissue around the bone. The three most common sarcomas are osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and Ewing's sarcoma. There are also soft tissue sarcomas that come from the tissues that support the organs in the body.
