...helping you get your life back to normal.

The Orthopaedic Musculoskeletal Oncology Service provides an in-depth, multidisciplinary exposure to the diagnosis and management of musculoskeletal tumors. Bone and soft tissue neoplasms are covered in both adults and children.

Clinical expertise includes histologic and radiographic diagnosis, adjuvant therapy, biopsy, and limb-salvage techniques. Research activities in cytogenetics, molecular genetics and in vitro osteoblast cultures focus on investigating the origin of bone tumors and the mechanisms of oncogenesis.

Collaborative relationships are maintained with the Departments of Pathology, Cell Biology, and Pediatrics.
