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.

Given this information, which of the following statements is NOT true?
