Compassionate Care and Expertise
The Division of Orthopedic Oncology team at the Alvin & Lois Lapidus Cancer Institute is especially sensitive to the needs of children diagnosed with benign and malignant tumors. Sinai Hospital is the only community-based hospital in Maryland with an interdisciplinary team supported by a pediatric ICU to effectively treat malignant tumors in children. Under the direction of Dr. Albert Aboulafia, our orthopedic oncology team treats the full range of benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumors and specializes in limb-sparing surgery for patients with primary malignant bone tumors such as Ewing's sarcoma and osteosarcoma.
