Osteosarcoma Management

Osteosarcoma is a type of bone cancer that often affects young people. Management typically involves a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and sometimes radiation. The primary goal is to remove the tumor and any surrounding affected tissue. Chemotherapy helps kill cancer cells and reduce the risk of recurrence. Treatment plans are personalized based on the tumor's size, location, and the patient's overall health. After treatment, regular follow-ups are crucial to monitor for any signs of return. Multidisciplinary teams, including doctors, nurses, and support staff, work together to provide comprehensive care for patients.
