Chondroblastic osteosarcomas (COS) are defined as high-grade bone tumours with a substantial volume of tumour tissue having a chondrosarcomatous phenotype next to osteoid-forming areas. 2,3. Treatment of OS relies on a combination of chemotherapy and surgery; radiotherapy has a limited role.
Ewing's sarcoma is a cancerous bone tumor affecting children and young adults. It gets its name from Dr. James Ewing, the doctor who first described the tumor in the 1920s. Ewing's sarcoma may arise anywhere in the body, but it usually originates in the long bones of the arms and legs, the pelvis, or the chest.
Osteosarcoma: A malignant tumor of osteoblasts , in which the tumor cells contain abundant alkaline phosphatase irrespective of whether tumor osteoid is present or absent. Chondrosarcoma: A malignant tumor of chondro- blasts, in which the tumor cells contain scanty or no alkaline phosphatase.
What are chondrosarcoma grades?Low-grade (grade I) chondrosarcomas, also called atypical cartilaginous tumors, tend to grow the slowest and are very unlikely to spread.Intermediate-grade (grade II) chondrosarcomas are slightly more likely to spread.High-grade (grade III) chondrosarcomas are the most likely to spread.
Chondrosarcomas are malignant cartilaginous neoplasms with diverse morphological features and clinical behavior. They account for about 20 percent of all primary malignant tumors of the bone and usually arise in the pelvis or long bones.

Ewing's sarcoma has generally been more responsive to chemotherapy than adult-type sarcomas, and chemotherapy is now recommended for all patients with this disease.
Chemo for Ewing sarcoma is given as a combination of medicines. The most common combo used in the U.S. is vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide, alternating with ifosfamide and etoposide. You may hear this called VDC/IE.
Metastatic Ewing tumors A metastatic Ewing tumor has clearly spread from where it started to distant parts of the body. Most of the time, it spreads to the lungs or to other bones or the bone marrow. Less commonly, it spreads to the liver or lymph nodes.
