Bone Cancer

An Inside Look at Bone Cancer
By Darrell D Price

Bone Cancer Bone cancer can form in the new soft tissue of a child or in the mature bone tissue of an adult. The usual treatment is surgery, sometimes replacing the bone with metal or plastic. There are many references to sarcoma that are defined as kaposis, ewings, synovial, spindle cell, and osteogenic, which are all forms of bone cancer.

I know a 4 year old girl with Ewing's Sarcoma. The recommended surgical treatment was to remove the lower part of her body from above the pelvis. Bone cancer may be 'primary' (the original cancer site) or secondary, (metastasized from another site), which is often the case.

Bone cancers can be treated by using any of the standard protocols of surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy separately or in combination.

The prognosis for patients depend upon the location, age, involvement, and general health of the patient. In older men, this form of cancer is often secondary to prostate cancer and in these cases the patient has lost so much vitality that the best that can be done is to keep the patient as comfortable as possible. Consider detoxification and nutrition as basic alternative support to the bone cancer patient.

I highly recommend fruits high in antioxidants, beta carotene and vitamin E.
