Orthopaedic Center
The Orthopaedic Center offers treatment for adults and children with musculoskeletal tumors. We evaluate many different types of disorders, including benign tumors, malignant tumors, bone tumors, soft tissue tumors, and metastatic lesions. We also manage orthopaedic problems in oncologic patients, who may require specialized, multidisciplinary care in a comprehensive cancer center. Such problems include fractures, trauma, arthritis, avascular necrosis, osteoporosis, and infections.
