Γλώσσες Τεκμηρίου:

Περίληψη:
Bone tumours around the elbow are rare. Even nowadays diagnostic dilemmas and delays are common. During recent decades the management and prognosis of patients with elbow bone tumours has improved significantly. Benign tumours can be treated using minimally invasive procedures, whereas malignant ones require a multidisciplinary team approach based on an adjuvant therapeutic regimen of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and limb salvage procedures. This article reviews the most commonly encountered elbow bone tumours and their management. © 2019 The author(s).
