Abstract :

Introduction– There are still now no standardized bone tumour data available for West Bengal which has a wide geographical variation. Aims and objective–So the present study helps us to know the distribution and causation of bone tumors in West Bengal as well as to know the risk factors of the bone tumors in different category of people . Materials and methods–Patients within age range of 5–65 years have been selected for this survey as most of the primary bone tumours are restricted within this age group. Retrospective and Prospective datas were collected during the time period of 2005–2010 as available data for pathology dept. tumor histopathology registry khata and population survey in tumor clinic of opd from 2011–15. All recorded datas have been analyzed using standard statistical method (Kappa Statistics) . Results–A total of 130 patients were found to have had bone tumours from Pathology dept.registry data of our medical college from suspected 167 cases in this present sample survey studied for the period of 2005 to 2010 .We collected datas further from2011 to 2016 from the collective data of bone tumor clinic of dept. of Orthopedics were found to have had 287 malignant and 67 benign bone tumors among 354 cases selected for this study. conclusion– we can say that a continuous work is required in this field to prepare a proper and statistically significant bone tumor register in this region of West Bengal and the search will goes on.
