Can Tumour Occur In Calf Muscle?

Hi, I am due to see an orthopaedic oncologist this week based on an MRI that revealed (radiologist opinion) a small possible tumor. It s approx 1.5 inches in diameter...it s in my calf muscle and only revealed itself to me roughly 3 weeks ago. MY question is, given that I ve had doctors freak out before over a few hemangiomas in my liver...with the thought of cancer. Could I possible have developed one in the same manner in my calf muscle? I ve had 6 other cyst/lipomas removed as well on other areas on my body too. My grandma was unusual in this way too.
