Bone Cancer Treatment

Call to make an appointment.

Comprehensive Care for Bone and Soft-tissue Tumors

Different types of bone cancers respond differently to various treatment options, which may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy or a combination of the three. Our goal is to spare as much of the limb and tissue as possible.

Explore Bone Cancer Clinical Trials

In addition to our current leading-edge treatments, Norton Cancer Institute gives our Western Kentucky and Southern Indiana patients the opportunity to participate in innovative National Cancer Institute- and industry-sponsored clinical research studies. These trials help to improve current cancer treatments, in addition to finding new and promising solutions.

The Norton Cancer Institute Resource Centers offer a variety of support services that address the emotional, physical and spiritual needs of patients and their families. The Center houses a library of educational resources about bone cancer prevention, detection, treatment and recovery. Specially trained oncology nurses are on hand to provide one-on-one counseling.
