The increase in Cancer and related mortality is on the rise worldwide, with India being no exception. Among the different types of cancers, primary bone cancer is rare and its detection in time is challenging. These affect children and young adult’s more thereby affecting patients who are in productive, crucial stages of their lives.

Orthopaedic oncology is a specialized field of medicine that is focused on the treatment of such tumours and cancers. The location of tumours can be closer to your joints making it difficult to remove and might even force the surgeon to cut through the joint just to ensure complete removal.

In this interactive lecture and workshop, we will discuss the various aspects of ortho oncology, ranging from anatomy to clinical investigation, followed by its surgical intervention.

The workshop will show how Virtual Surgical Planning and 3D Printing can be utilized to pre-plan the surgery, achieve precise osteotomies with the help of customized advanced surgical tools and ensure complete tumor removal with maximum bone retention through live demonstration.
