Bone Cancer Surgery cost in India

Most primary bone cancers are in the arms or legs. Limb-sparing surgery is the main operation for these cancers. This means removing the cancer without removing the affected arm or leg. It is also sometimes called limb salvage surgery.

High-grade bone cancer looks very abnormal compared with healthy tissue and tends to grow and spread more quickly. High-grade tumors may also be described as poorly differentiated. The bone cancer grade may help your care team determine how quickly the cancer is likely to spread and how best to treat it.

Most cases of stage 1 bone cancer and some stage 2 bone cancers have a good chance of being cured. Unfortunately, stage 3 bone cancer is more difficult to cure, although treatment can relieve symptoms and slow the spread of the cancer.

For all bone cancers combined, the five-year survival rate is about 70 percent. This varies by cancer type, grade and stage. For osteosarcomas and Ewing sarcomas that are still localized, the five-year survival rate is between 60 and 80 percent.
