An orthopaedic oncologist in Mumbai is a surgeon with skills in treating bone, joint, and muscle tumours and cancers. Our professionals are also knowledgeable in diagnosing tumours to determine whether they are benign or malignant. Oncologists at our facility offer care to adults and children with tumours or tumour-like symptoms in their musculoskeletal system.
Orthopaedic oncology falls under orthopaedic medicine. It involves medical professionals trained in diagnosing and treating diseases and abnormalities in the bones of children and adults.
Our orthopaedic department is under the control of qualified orthopaedic oncology specialists in Mumbai. Since cancerous tumours are dangerous if left unattended, orthopaedic oncologists in our hospital reduce the risks of inappropriate diagnoses.
At our orthopaedic oncology division, we deal with the following conditions:
The procedures include working on the affected tissues and the tissues around them for maximum removal of cancerous cells.
Firstly, they have an in-person meeting with the patient to go through the symptoms. Afterwards, we suggest the appropriate tests to diagnose the problem.
Orthopaedic oncologists at our facility propose treatments or surgeries based on the extent of the benign or malignant tumour.
After visiting your general physician, they might identify suspicious masses (tumours) that need further analysis. General practitioners cannot perform the functions of orthopaedic oncologists. That’s why they send you to our orthopaedic oncologists for further testing.
Sometimes, the results come back negative, but it does not hurt to try. If you get a referral, visit Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital for a full consultation.
General practitioners send you to our orthopaedic oncologists because of:
Even the slightest pain in the bones or discomfort could result from tumour growth.
The first visit to our orthopaedic oncology specialists in Mumbai involves taking X-rays to see what is going on. That is if you haven’t brought any X-ray results.
If you have test results from the general physician, our orthopaedic oncologist examines them and may repeat imaging if they need further analysis.
After we find a tumour in your bones, here’s what you should ask to help you stay calm.
After treatment, ask the orthopaedic oncologist at our facility these questions:
Our orthopaedic oncology specialists in Mumbai do everything possible to remove tumours and improve patients’ lives. If surgery is the best option to remove bone tumours, then they’ll take that route.
At Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital, we will explore all the possible options before settling on surgery.
After treatment, patients should visit us, the best orthopaedic oncology doctors in Mumbai every three to six months for two to three years.
We will advise on the best follow-up care to prevent the recurrence of cancer. Regular visits and tests are great because if anything happens, we’ll catch it in time.
The frequency of visits to our oncologist depends on the treatment method selected. Also, cancer stages determine how often you come to us.
Chemotherapy treatment, for example, happens every one to four weeks. So, that’s how often you should visit our doctors during treatments.
With cancerous tumours, the risk of spreading is very high. Therefore, patients need treatment to prevent the spread and possibly remove the tumour.
Different treatments are available, each with side effects. As a result, follow-up is necessary to monitor progress and help deal with the effects of the medicine.
After treatment, it is mandatory to visit our orthopaedic oncologists as many times as we suggest. Follow-up ensures no more traces of cancer and eliminates chances of recurrence. Patients that don’t come back for post treatment reviews risk relapse.
