The Bone Tumors Branch within Orthopedic Oncology focuses on diagnosing and treating tumors that arise in the bones. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Specialists in this branch work to develop tailored treatment plans, which may include surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation, depending on the tumor type and location. Their goal is to effectively manage these conditions, preserving as much healthy bone as possible while ensuring the best outcomes for patients. The branch also engages in research to improve treatment strategies and patient care in the field of bone tumors.
