Musculoskeletal tumors are relatively rare and require highly specialized care.

Multidisciplinary Care
Bone and soft tissue cancers are relatively rare, with less than 20,000 new diagnoses in the United States annually. It is important that these tumors are treated by a multidisciplinary team. At UConn Health, our orthopedic oncology team includes oncologists, endocrinologists, radiation oncologists, and radiologists who regularly collaborate to provide individualized care for our patients.
