Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions are treated by an orthopedic oncology specialist?
Orthopedic oncology focuses on benign and malignant tumours of the bones and soft tissues, metastatic bone disease, pathological fractures and other tumour-related musculoskeletal conditions.
Does every bone tumour require surgery?
No. Treatment depends on the type of tumour, whether it is benign or malignant, its size and location, symptoms, imaging findings and the patient's overall condition.
Can a limb be preserved in bone cancer?
Limb salvage surgery may be possible in selected cases. Suitability depends on the tumour type, location, extent of disease and other clinical factors.
How is a bone or soft tissue tumour diagnosed?
Evaluation may include clinical examination, imaging such as X-ray, MRI or CT, and a properly planned biopsy when required.
What is a pathological fracture?
A pathological fracture occurs when a bone weakened by a tumour or another underlying disease breaks with minimal or no significant trauma.
When should a growing lump or swelling be evaluated?
A persistent or enlarging lump, particularly when associated with pain or functional difficulty, should be medically assessed to determine whether further imaging or specialist evaluation is required.
