The following is the final paragraph in an Orthopedic Consult Note from Dr. Phyllis Sanchez, MD, FAAOS:I discussed the next steps with Mr. Samuels and his family, including staging the tumor and scheduling a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. I discussed the surgery with Mr. Samuels and his family in the office. His tumor will likely require tumor resection with partial ostectomy of the femur with osteoplasty. I discussed the benefits of a metal endoprosthesis versus an allograft for the osteoplasty. Mr. Samuels is scheduled to return to my office 1 week following his biopsy to discuss the results. Given this information, which of the following statements is NOT true? 

A. Mr. Samuels has a tumor that will require surgery. B. Mr. Samuels has a bone disease that requires surgery. C. As part of his treatment plan, part of Mr. Samuel's femur will be removed and then reconstructed. D. Dr. Sanchez prefers a metal device to replace some of the missing bone as opposed to taking some bone from another place on Mr. Samuel's body for the bone reconstruction.
