Form of cancer

My mum has lung cancer which has spread to lymph glands she has had a fall and after a recent mri with suspition of cancer gone to the bone it was today confirmed that there was cancer in her arm was told it was called a pathological fracture is this the same as bone cancer

  • A pathologic fracture is a bone fracture caused by disease that lead to weakness of the bone structure. This process is most commonly due to osteoporosis, but may also be due to other pathologies such as: cancer, infection, inherited bone disorders,or a bone cyst....so not necessarely caused by cancer xxx
