Abstract

[Indexed for MEDLINE] 8. J Surg Oncol. 2022 Oct;126(5):906-912. doi: 10.1002/jso.27027. Fifty years of bone tumors. Bartelstein MK(1), Boland PJ(1). Author information: (1)Orthopaedic Surgery Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, USA. There have been enormous advances in the treatment of bone tumors over the past half-century. The most notable of these has been the transition from amputation as the standard of care to limb salvage surgery. This transition is the result of advances in imaging techniques, accurate diagnosis, systemic therapies (including chemotherapy), and prosthetic design for the reconstruction of musculoskeletal defects. Advances have also been made in the management of benign and metastatic bone tumors. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC. DOI: 10.1002/jso.27027 PMCID: PMC9524618
