The main treatment for bone tumors is surgery. Of course, in malignant bone tumors, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are also used, but most of the tumor volume is removed by surgery.
Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are methods of assisting surgery that are used to kill (or minimize) tumor cells that remain in the body after surgery.
Surgery is not only a therapeutic procedure but is also used for biopsy or tumor biopsy. A biopsy or diagnostic biopsy of a tumor is a surgery independent of therapeutic surgery, but it is very important that the two surgeries are scheduled and performed by a surgeon.

Our patients’ experience of Healtha treatment
Generally the tumor is removed using surgery. Often radiation therapy is used in combination with surgery. Limb salvage surgery removes the cancerous section of bone but keeps nearby muscles, tendons, nerves and blood vessels. If possible, the surgeon will take out the tumor and a margin of healthy tissue around it.
Most bone tumors are benign (not cancerous). Benign tumors are usually not life-threatening and, in most cases, will not spread to other parts of the body. Depending upon the type of tumor, treatment options are wide-ranging—from simple observation to surgery to remove the tumor.
Patients with a bone tumor will often experience pain in the area of the tumor. This pain is generally described as dull and aching. It may worsen at night and increase with activity.
Other symptoms of a bone tumor can include fever and night sweats.
Many patients will not have any symptoms, but will note a painless mass instead.
