Specializing in Pediatric Bone and Soft Tissue Masses
The Division of Orthopedic Oncology at the Alvin and Lois Lapidus Cancer Institute provides highly specialized care for children, adolescents and adults with bone and soft tissue tumors including cancers that have spread from other sites in the body.
Our orthopedic oncology team is especially sensitive to the needs of children diagnosed with benign and malignant tumors. Sinai Hospital is the only community-based hospital in Maryland with an interdisciplinary team composed of a fellowship trained orthopedic oncology surgeon, pediatric oncologists, and radiation oncologists supported by a pediatric ICU to effectively treat malignant tumors in children.
Under the direction of Dr. Albert Aboulafia, our orthopedic oncology team treats the full range of benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumors and specializes in limb sparing surgery for patients with primary malignant bone tumors such as Ewing's sarcoma and osteosarcoma.
