Musculoskeletal Cancer Surgeries

Musculoskeletal Cancer Surgeries

Musculoskeletal cancers, including bone and soft tissue sarcomas, are rare but serious conditions that require highly specialized treatment. These cancers can affect any part of the body, including bones, muscles, tendons, and cartilage, and often require a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation for effective treatment. Dr. Radha Raman Mondal, Consultant Surgical Oncologist at NH Narayana Hospital, is a skilled expert in musculoskeletal cancer surgeries, offering cutting-edge treatments to manage these complex and challenging conditions.

Dr. Mondal specializes in limb-salvage procedures designed to remove the cancer while preserving the function and mobility of the affected limb. 

He utilizes the latest surgical techniques and technology to achieve precise tumor resections, ensuring that the surrounding healthy tissue and structures are preserved. For patients with bone cancers, such as osteosarcoma or Ewing’s sarcoma, Dr. Mondal employs reconstructive surgery to replace or reconstruct parts of the bone that have been removed. This may involve using prosthetic implants or autografts (bone taken from the patient’s own body) to rebuild the affected area.

When limb preservation is not feasible due to the extent of the cancer, Dr. Mondal is skilled in performing amputations followed by prosthetic fittings, ensuring that patients are supported with the best possible rehabilitation options. His holistic approach to care includes collaborating with physical therapists, rehabilitation specialists, and oncologists to help patients regain their mobility and quality of life after surgery.

Dr. Mondal’s expertise extends to soft tissue sarcomas, which affect muscles, fat, nerves, and other connective tissues. He is experienced in wide local excision to remove the tumor while minimizing the risk of recurrence. In some cases, radiation therapy may be recommended post-surgery to ensure complete tumor removal and to prevent regrowth.

Throughout the treatment journey, Dr. Radha Raman Mondal provides compassionate care and continuous support to his patients, ensuring that they are well-informed and confident in their treatment decisions. He emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and timely intervention, as these factors are crucial to successful outcomes in musculoskeletal cancers.

With over 9 years of experience and membership in leading oncology societies, Dr. Mondal is committed to offering world-class care for musculoskeletal cancers. His approach combines cutting-edge surgical techniques with compassionate patient care, providing the highest level of expertise and support for those facing these challenging conditions.
