About the Procedure

What is Bone Cancer Treatment?

Bone Cancer Treatment involves a multidisciplinary approach combining surgical oncology, medical oncology, and radiation therapy to remove malignant bone tumors (such as osteosarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma, or chondrosarcoma) and prevent recurrence or spread. Treatment plans are individualized based on tumor type, stage, and location, often integrating limb-salvage surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy for the best functional and survival outcomes. India's leading oncology centers offer advanced diagnostics, skilled orthopedic oncologists, and comprehensive rehabilitation at a fraction of Western costs.

Who may be considered?

Bone Cancer Treatment may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.

How does it work?

Wide surgical excision of the tumor followed by reconstruction using a custom or modular endoprosthesis to preserve limb function, typically combined with neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy.

3 approaches available for this procedure:

Limb Salvage Surgery with Endoprosthetic Reconstruction

Most Popular

Wide surgical excision of the tumor followed by reconstruction using a custom or modular endoprosthesis to preserve limb function, typically combined with neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: $800 - $2,500

MRI of affected bone, CT chest for metastasis screening, bone scan/PET-CT, biopsy with histopathology, CBC, liver and kidney function tests, ECG, echocardiography

Treatment / Procedure Estimate

Estimated cost in India: $14,000 - $28,000

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~4-6 days
Hospitalisation: ~10-14 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~30-45 days recommended
Total stay: approx 6-8 weeks

Usually Included in Hospital Package

  • Pre-surgical oncology consultations and tumor board review
  • Custom/modular endoprosthesis implant
  • Surgeon, anesthetist, and OT charges
  • Standard room stay with nursing care
  • Post-operative physiotherapy sessions during admission

Usually Not Included

  • Chemotherapy drug cycles (billed separately)
  • Long-term rehabilitation and prosthetic maintenance
  • Travel, visa, and accommodation for attendants
  • Complications requiring revision surgery
  • Follow-up PET-CT scans post-discharge

Recovery and follow-up

Recovery involves gradual physiotherapy to restore mobility and strength, with regular follow-up imaging every 3-6 months to monitor for recurrence, alongside continued chemotherapy cycles if part of the treatment plan.

Risks

Risks include infection, implant failure or loosening (in limb salvage cases), delayed wound healing, chemotherapy-related side effects such as immunosuppression, and possibility of tumor recurrence or metastasis.

Alternatives

Depending on tumor type and stage, alternatives may include cryosurgery, radiofrequency ablation for localized lesions, or palliative radiotherapy for symptom control when curative surgery is not feasible.

Our methodology

How GAF Healthcare selects doctors

Doctors may be included when they meet relevant criteria for bone cancer treatment. This is a transparent listing methodology, not a clinical recommendation or paid ranking:

01

Relevant specialty

surgical oncology expertise is mapped from the doctor's listed specialty and profile information.

02

Procedure relevance

bone cancer treatment is listed among the doctor's procedures or areas of expertise, using matching terms where appropriate.

03

Hospital affiliation

The doctor is currently affiliated with a recognised hospital in the GAF directory. Hospital details and availability can change, so confirm them before booking.

04

Professional experience

Experience is displayed from the doctor's available professional profile and is used as the ordering signal when the page lists doctors.

05

Data verification

Doctor and hospital information is checked against the records available to GAF and updated when new information is supplied. It is not a substitute for confirming credentials directly.

06

No paid ranking

Being featured does not automatically mean the doctor is ranked number one. GAF does not sell position on this page.
