Bone Cancer is not a very common cancer and therefore there are few doctors who specialize in the treatment of Bone Cancer.
After Specializing in Orthopaedics, I had the choice to go for Joint Replacements or Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeries. I chose to tread the path less travelled and specialized in Orthopaedic Onco Surgery and Reconstruction Surgery from Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Hospital, New Delhi and Singapore General Hospital.
Dr. JS Virk, MS
Orthopaedic Onco Surgeon
When I was diagnosed with Bone Cancer
My whole world and all my dreams came crashing down
Next 6 months were dark, scary and frightening
I owe my life to Dr. Virk and his team.
My doctor in Phillipines gave me the bad news
I was suffering from Giant Cell Tumour on the left leg
I found that Dr Virk had trained at Singapore
We went to Paras Hospital, Panchkula, India/p>
Dr Virk did a wonderful job and saved my life. Thanks Doc.
My son was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in Jun 2019
After consulting many doctors we found Dr Virk
Online Consultation was done and we travelled to India
Thank You Dr. Virk for saving the life of my son
Most importantly thank you for saving his leg from amputation.
My son was diagnosed with Soft Tissue Sarcoma in the right thigh
We came to India and consulted several doctors
Paras Hospital at Panchkula was chosen by us
Dr JS Virk did the surgery to remove the tumour
It has been 4 years and everything is fine with my son.
Bone Cancer is a rare form of cancer but so are the bone cancer specialists. Very few orthopaedic surgeons choose to go in the field of Ortho Onco Surgery. Dr. JS Virk is of the few Ortho Onco Surgeons in India.
Lots of patients who are suspected to have any form of cancer are kept hanging in suspense due to the delays in testing and receiving the reports of the tests. This causes inexcusable delay in the commencement of the treatment.
Amputation of the limb in cases of bone cancer is not an acceptable option for most of the patients. Every Bone Cancer Specialist must aim to preserve the limb of the patient while providing treamtnet for eradication of the cancer.
CT Guided Radio Frequency Ablation is a boon for patients with certain types of bone cancer.It is minimally invasive procedure and is very safe.
In case of giant cell tumours preserving or saving the natural joint is the key. The challenge is stiffer in case the GCT is in small joints like ankle.
A very interesting case of 36 year old patient with complains of increasing pain in knee and lower thigh region. Finally diagnosed as grade 2/3 chondrosarcoma. Successfully Operated and Limb Saved.
