Abstract

The recent WHO classification of Bone Tumours (2020) has introduced several changes. Conceptionally, small round cell sarcomas are now summarized in adistinct chapter, acknowledging their occurrence in both, bone and soft tissue. In the light of new molecular findings some diagnostic categories, such as fibrohistiocytic tumors, have been abandoned, and afew new entities have been added to the classification. Finally, systematic changes were made with regard to the terminology employed in the classification of chondrogenic tumours, and modifications have been made with respect to the biological potential of some lesions. This article summarizes the major changes made, underscoring the elementary role of aninterdisciplinary approach in the diagnosis and management of bone lesions.
