Microwave Ablation of Bone Tumors

Description

The book provide up-to-date information on clinical application of microwave ablation for limb salvage in bone tumors. First chapters briefly introduce clinical diagnosis, stage, amputation and limb salvage surgery of bone tumors. In the following chapters, detailed procedure of microwave ablation of bone tumors in various parts of the body, for example, upper limb, lower limb, pelvis and spine, is described, accompanying a large number of high-resolution illustration. Microwave ablation of different kinds of bone tumors, for example, bone metastases, giant cell tumor, osteosarcoma, soft tissue tumors is also presented with tips in clinical procedure. In the closing chapters, joint function preservation, prevention and treatment of complications, and the advantages and disadvantages of microwave ablation of bone tumors are also discussed for reader to have a in-depth understanding. It will be a valuable reference for orthopedic surgeons and oncologists, as well as practitioners interested in this field.
