In the treatment of disease like cancer, as it is important to offer right diagnosis and treatment intervention, equally so is that promptness of treatment. Many places in India today do not have cancer treating doctors and facilities and such patients are deprived of right treatment at right time. Those patients usually come to nearest facility or nearby metro cities for the trea

tment and struggle to get the timely treatment and affordable prices. They are subjected to pass through long ques, long waiting hours, mental and financial distress before they are treated. Genetic Counselling
Genetic Counselling has gained an immense importance in overall management of cancer patients and its implications on personalizing treatment for patients their relatives. At Mumbai Oncocare Center, we have dedicated and highly qualified genetic counsellors who seek family history from our patients during their sessions and make them understand importance of genetic testing. Such tests can help point out specific mutations in patients suffering with cancer which in turn help cancer treating physicians to offer personalized medicines to them to achieve best outcomes with minimal side effects. There are genetic tests available these days which undertake evaluation of panel of specific genes to check abnormalities in them and suggest treatment / medicines which can specifically work on them and which of them will have no benefit at all.

Warning Signs of Sarcoma You Shouldn’t Ignore

Sarcoma can be difficult to detect in its early stages, as symptoms often develop gradually and may be mistaken for less serious conditions.

Common warning signs include:
- a lump that grows over time (often painless at first),
- persistent pain in muscles, joints, or bones,
- swelling or a firm mass deep under the skin,
- limited movement or stiffness near the affected area.
- Individuals may experience unexplained fatigue,
- Weight loss,
- Even bone fractures with minimal trauma.

Recognizing these symptoms early and consulting a healthcare professional can play a vital role in timely diagnosis and treatment.

Sarcoma: The Silent Threat in Connective Tissues

Sarcoma is a rare but significant type of cancer that arises in the body’s connective tissues, including muscles, fat, nerves, blood vessels, and bones. Though it accounts for less than 1% of all adult cancers, it comprises around 15% of cancers found in children, highlighting its importance in pediatric oncology.

Due to its rarity and the variety of tissues it can affect, sarcoma can be difficult to diagnose early, often leading to delayed treatment.

Raising awareness about sarcoma is crucial, as early detection and timely intervention can greatly improve outcomes.

Understanding the symptoms and staying informed can help individuals and families recognize warning signs and seek appropriate medical attention.
