Bone cancer is one of the rare cancers. However due to huge population of India, the relative disease burden of this kind of cancer is very high.
Bone cancer can be cured id diagnosed and treated early, Many patients are unable to get their treatment done due to lack of funds. So they waste lot of time in collecting funds as a result of which they land up in curable bone cancer.
Primary bone cancer usally occurs in young children between the age group of 10-30 years of age. It is big cause of stress for the parents to see their young child having this dreadful disease during his/her crucial years of life.
If these children and adults get their treatment done early, they can play a very useful role in the society.
Why Punjab?
Bone cancer treatment requires highly specialized training for orthopedic surgeons. There are very few Bone cancer specialists (Orthopedic Oncologists) in every state of India. The initiative to help bone cancer patients has been taken for the first time by an orthopedic surgeon Dr. R.R Saggar, who happens to be working in Punjab.
