Tumour Resection and Reconstruction

One cancer can occur in any of the 206 bones of the adult human body, but it occurs most often in the long bones of the arms and legs. Destruction of bone by tumours leads to severe pain with vulnerability to easy fracturing of bone along with incapacitation, deteriorating the quality of life and reduced lifespan of the patient. The management of patients with skeletal tumours has always been challenging. Limb preservation in bone tumours by Custom Mega Prosthesis instead of limb amputations has now been well established.
