Bone cancer surgery recovery tracked in new study
NCT ID NCT03442465
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 300 people who had surgery to remove bone tumors (like osteosarcoma or chondrosarcoma). Researchers want to see how well the bone heals and how much function returns over 3 years. Participants fill out questionnaires about their daily activities. No new drug or treatment is being tested—this is about understanding recovery after standard surgery.
