Freezing Cancer: How Cryotherapy is Changing Bone and Soft Tissue Tumour Treatment
As we mark Sarcoma Awareness Month, Dr. Srimanth B S, Lead Consultant – Orthopaedic Oncology at Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, sheds light on the growing role of cryotherapy in managing bone and soft tissue tumours, including sarcomas. Cryotherapy uses extremely cold temperatures, often below –100°C, to freeze and destroy tumour cells. From minimally invasive cryoablation to advanced bone cancer surgeries, this technique is being successfully applied in treating both benign and malignant tumours.
In limb-salvage procedures, it allows surgeons to treat and reuse the affected bone with implants, helping patients retain mobility and avoid amputations. With precision and fewer complications, cryotherapy is fast becoming a valuable tool in orthopaedic cancer care.

Cancer Symptoms in Children: Early symptoms of cancer in children, things parents should know.
People of any age and gender can be affected by cancer. Cancer types in children are very different from those in young people and adults in terms of their biological makeup, progression (spread), and potential cure. In most cases, cancers found in children have subtle symptoms in the early stages. Moreover, since the early symptoms of cancer often resemble those of other common diseases in children, it is not uncommon for parents to misunderstand these symptoms or ignore them as not being serious problems. This leads to delayed diagnosis and poses a major challenge in the management of childhood cancers.

A new frontier in cancer care: Personalised, precise, and transformative
India’s battle against cancer has reached a critical point with a sharp surge in cases and an alarming increase in mortality rates, as highlighted by a new ICMR report. The report, published in The Lancet (1), revealed that three in five people die after a cancer diagnosis in India. As reported by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN), cancer cases in women have risen more sharply than in men, with death rates projected to increase from 64.7 per cent to 109.6 per cent between 2022 and 2050. Despite these concerning trends, advancements in oncology are offering hope by transforming cancer into a more manageable chronic condition.

Robotic surgery: A new era in safe and precise operations
Today's world is moving towards minimally invasive surgical techniques in every medical field. The concept of minimally invasive surgery is gaining importance, particularly in the field of ENT and Head and Neck surgery, as the face represents a person. The head and neck house various critical neurovascular structures, and any surgery in these areas must be performed with high precision. Minimally invasive surgery is an efficient alternative to conventional surgery. One such innovation is robotic-assisted surgery, which has emerged as a revolutionary tool, improving precision, control, and patient outcomes across several surgical disciplines, including orthopaedics, urology, gynaecology, and neurosurgery. Its application in ENT and Head & Neck surgery is rapidly expanding, offering significant advantages for surgeons and patients.
