Edward Kennedy had bone cancer - he had a partial amputation which probably saved his life. The commonest type of primary bone cancer is osteosarcoma. It is most often diagnosed in children and teenagers but can occur at any age. Osteosarcomas can grow anywhere in the skeleton. But the commonest sites are Lower thigh (femur), Upper shin bone (tibia), Upper arm (humerus) or Lower shin bone.

What kind of cancer does Senator Ted Kennedy have?

Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a malignant glioma or gliobastoma. To clarify what the answer above stated "Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a malignant glioma or gliosblastoma", a malignant glioma and a glioblastoma are not necessarily one in the same. A glioblastoma is actually a type of glioma. There are other gliomas, such as an astrocytoma. The term "glioma" just means that the tumor has arisen from "glial" cells.
