Bone Tumors Treatment

Bone tumors are abnormal growths in the bone that can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Treatment typically involves surgery to remove the tumor, potentially followed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy to eliminate remaining cancer cells, especially for malignant tumors. For benign tumors, monitoring or surgical removal might be sufficient. The specific approach depends on the tumor's type, location, and stage, as well as the patient's overall health. Rehabilitation may also be necessary post-treatment to restore function and strength. Collaboration among oncologists, orthopedic surgeons, and rehabilitation specialists is crucial for effective care.
