About this listen
This episode takes a critical deep dive into bone cancer, exploring the vital differences between rare primary bone cancers—like osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and chondrosarcoma—and the far more common secondary (metastatic) bone cancers that spread from other organs.
Key highlights include:
- How each primary bone cancer differs in origin, age group, and bone location
- The role of multidisciplinary teams in planning biopsies to preserve limbs
- Why core needle biopsy placement must be coordinated with surgical planning
- Risks of improper biopsy technique, including avoidable amputations
- Advances in limb-sparing surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation for better outcomes
If you're facing or supporting a bone cancer diagnosis, this episode offers essential insights into navigating treatment with clarity, strategy, and the best chances for preservation and recovery.
