What Are Orthopedic Tumors?
Orthopedic tumors are abnormal growths that develop in the bones, joints, or soft tissues (such as muscle, fat, or connective tissue). These tumors may be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous), and they can occur at any age.
Common types of orthopedic tumors include:
-
Benign tumors: Osteochondroma, enchondroma, giant cell tumor, bone cysts
-
Malignant bone tumors: Osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, chondrosarcoma
-
Soft tissue sarcomas: Liposarcoma, synovial sarcoma, fibrosarcoma
-
Metastatic bone disease: Cancer spread from breast, lung, prostate, or kidney
Symptoms may include pain, swelling, limited mobility, or the presence of a palpable mass. In some cases, tumors are discovered incidentally during imaging for unrelated issues.
Diagnostic Approach
Accurate diagnosis is essential to determine whether a tumor is benign or malignant and to plan the appropriate treatment. At Estexper, we utilize advanced imaging modalities such as:
-
X-rays
-
MRI and CT scans
-
Bone scans and PET-CT
-
Image-guided biopsy for histopathological examination
Our multidisciplinary team includes orthopedic oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, and oncologists, all collaborating to ensure timely and accurate diagnosis.
Treatment Options at Estexper Spine Center
Treatment strategies vary depending on the type, size, location, and aggressiveness of the tumor, as well as the patient’s age and overall health. We emphasize limb-preserving techniques and use state-of-the-art technology to maximize safety and function.
Treatment may include:
-
Surgical removal of the tumor with clear margins
-
Reconstructive surgery using prostheses, grafts, or custom implants
-
Limb-salvage procedures in malignant cases to avoid amputation
-
Adjuvant therapies such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy for sarcomas
-
Palliative surgery to manage metastatic bone disease and fractures
All surgical procedures are performed in university hospital settings by experienced orthopedic oncology teams, ensuring optimal outcomes and strict adherence to international oncologic standards.
Long-Term Follow-Up and Support
After surgery or treatment, regular follow-up is essential to monitor healing, detect recurrence, and manage rehabilitation. Our care team provides comprehensive support, including physical therapy, psychological counseling, and long-term surveillance protocols.
