Sarcomas are rare cancers that affect bone and soft tissue. Due to their rarity, a diagnosis of sarcoma can be difficult to navigate and the impact on individuals and families are far reaching. The goal of this podcast is to improve sarcoma education for patients, friends, families and trainees. Our goal is to shed light on the diagnostic workup, treatment and follow up process for patients diagnosed with sarcoma or other tumors of bone and soft tissue treated by orthopedic oncologists.

Episode 24: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor
Peripheral Nerves are vital to the function of the human body. Nerves and the sheath that lines them can become neoplastic leading to the formation of tumors. In the previous episode we discussed the benign tumors that arise from peripheral nerves, this episode will focus on the malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST). These tumors are associated with a high local recurrence rate and can be problematic to treat. We discuss the diagnosis, management and treatment of MPNST.

Episode 22: Research and Data in Sarcoma Care - Musculoskeletal Tumor Registry
The rarity and uniqueness of each individuals case make research in orthopaedic oncology and sarcoma challenging. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Registry (MsTR) is taking this on, led by Dr. Benjamin Miller and program manager Atusa Moreno. The MsTr is an orthopaedic oncological diagnosis-based registry developed in partnership with the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS). The goal of the registry is to capture data on orthopaedic oncology, specifically bone and soft tissue tumor procedures, in a structured and scalable way. On this episode we discuss sarcoma research and the future of the registry

Customer Reviews
Thank you
As a 2x survivor of Cancer (Breast Cancer in 2020, and Chondrosarcoma of the femur 2022) I appreciate all of this. Both the medical and survivor stories. Most especially, I appreciate the discussions regarding the mental and emotional impacts of Cancer & treatment - and the need for even more emphasis on this part of the situation.
Synovial sarcoma
Recent synovial sarcoma diagnosed (~3 months ago): entering second round of chemo. Chemo is going better than anticipated so that’s encouraging. I’d like more info on synovial types - you focused on bone types, I see. Do you plan a podcast about this soon?
Thanks
Perfect in every way
Very informative insight from true experts. I found this podcast enlightening. Thank you for your dedication and hard work.
