A pathological fracture is a bone fracture that occurs due to weakened bone caused by disease, such as bone cancer or myeloma. In Mumbai, patients with bone tumors, including osteosarcoma or Ewing’s sarcoma, are at higher risk for pathological fractures, which can cause significant pain and disability.
Treatment for pathological fractures depends on the underlying cause, but often involves a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In some cases, limb salvage surgery is necessary to remove the tumor and stabilize the bone. If the fracture is severe, a megaprosthesis may be used to replace the damaged bone or joint, allowing the patient to regain mobility.
If you experience persistent bone pain, swelling, or frequent fractures, it’s important to seek specialized care in Mumbai to address the underlying cause.
