Bone Cancer Treatment in India | Bone Cancer Doctor in India | Cure Bone Cancer

Bone cancer is a malignant (cancerous) tumor of the bone that destroys normal bone tissue. Not all bone tumors are malignant. In fact, benign (noncancerous) bone tumors are more common than malignant ones. Both malignant and benign bone tumors may grow and compress healthy bone tissue, but benign tumors do not spread, do not destroy bone tissue, and are rarely a threat to life.

Bone cancer can be distinguished into primary and secondary bone cancer. When cancer spreads within the cells of the bone, it is classified as Primary Bone Cancer.  Examples of primary bone cancer include Osteosarcoma, Ewing Sarcoma, Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma and Chondrosarcoma.

In cases where cancer which originated from another part of the body, has spread to the bone, it gets classified as Secondary Bone Cancer Treatment in India.

What are the symptoms/effects?

The most common symptom of bone tumors is pain. In most cases, the symptoms become gradually more severe with time. Initially, the pain may only be present either at night or with activity. Depending on the growth of the tumor, those affected may have symptoms for weeks, months, or years before seeking medical advice. In some cases, a mass or lump may be felt either on the bone or in the tissues surrounding the bone. The bones can become weakened by the tumor and lead to a fracture after little or no trauma. Fever, chills, night sweats, and weight loss can occur but are less common. These symptoms are more common after spread of the tumor to other tissues in the body.

Other symptoms include:

Fatigue

Fever

Anaemia

Bone fractures

Many patients will not experience any symptoms making the prognosis difficult. The only giveaway would be a painless mass which could confirm bone cancer. Some bone tumours may weaken the structure of the bone causing pathologic fractures.

Treatment

The options on treatment for bone cancer depends on several factors, such as what type of bone cancer it is, where it is located, how aggressive it is, and whether it is localized or spread. There are typically 4 stages of bone cancer which have various treatment options. If the tumour in the bone is of low grade, it is called as Stage 1 Bone Cancer. In case the cancer in the bone is of high-grade, then it is classified as Stage 2 Bone Cancer. A Metastatic bone cancer which has spread to other parts of the bone then it is called Stage 3 Bone Cancer. Advanced cases where it has spread to other parts of body gets classified as called Stage 4 Bone Cancer. Some of the latest bone cancer treatment options that available are:

Surgery

Radiotherapy (Radiation Therapy)

Chemotherapy

Surgery – in this form of bone cancer treatment in India, the aim is to remove the tumour completely along with some of the bone tissue that surrounds it. If some of the cancer is left behind after surgically removing the tumour, it may continue to grow and eventually spread. Limb sparing surgery, also known as limb salvage surgery means that surgical intervention occurs without having to amputate the limb. During the leg or arm treatment, the surgeon may take some bone from another part of the body to replace lost bone (bone graft), or an artificial bone may be put in. In some cases, however, amputation of a limb may be necessary during treatment.

  1. If the tumor has not spread, surgery may be able to cure the patient. However, it is not always feasible to know if the cancer has spread or not before surgery. An experienced tumor treatment surgeon in Gurgaon will probably remove lymph nodes near the tumor (sentinel nodes) during surgery to examine if the cancer has spread to them.
