Cartilage and Bone Tumors and Vascular Anomalies Clinic
At the Cartilage and Bone Tumors and Vascular Anomalies Clinic, we specialize in the diagnosis and management of cartilage tumors, bone tumors and vascular anomalies in children and adults. These tumors or vascular anomalies may be benign or malignant. Most of our patients do not have a family history of these conditions, but a clinical and genetic diagnosis can influence a patient’s surveillance, pharmacological treatment and cancer prevention.
At the Cartilage and Bone Tumors and Vascular Anomalies Clinic, we see patients who have a wide range of cancerous and noncancerous cartilage and bone tumors and vascular anomalies, including, but not limited to:
- Ollier disease
- Maffucci syndrome
- Metaphyseal enchondromatosis with D-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria
- Genochondromatosis
- Dysspondyloenchondromatosis
- Spondyloenchondrodysplasia with immune dysregulation
- Metachondromatosis
- Hereditary multiple exostosis
- Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia
