Orthopedic Surgical Oncology For Bone Tumors

lt;p>Dr. Harzem Özger graduated from the medical school at Istanbul University Istanbul Faculty of Medicine in 1979. He completed his residency training in the Dept. of Orthopaedics and Traumatology of the same institution in 1984 with his thesis on "Resurfacing Arthroplasty in Hip Surgery", which was based on his studies in Istanbul, Berlin and Heidelberg. In 1989, he gained experience in tumor surgery at the Medical University of Vienna's Dept. of Orthopaedics, under the supervision of Prof. Rainer Kotz. Upon his return to Istanbul, he established the "Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors" registry at his home clinic. After becoming an Associate Professor in 1990, he worked almost exclusively in the field of orthopedic oncology and received a full professorship in 1996. His clinical practice and research focus on biological reconstruction using vascular fibula and liquid nitrogen recycled autografts, nonbiological reconstruction with tumor prosthesis, spinopelvic tumor surgery, extreme limb salvage in massive or recurrent tumors utilizing radiotherapy, complex foot reconstruction after tumor resection, limb lengthening and deformity correction and wound management in orthopedic oncology. Since his retirement from Istanbul University in 2016, he has continued his private practice and academic work as the head of Istanbul Orthopedic Oncology Group. He is a member of the Turkish Musculoskeletal Tumour Society (TMTS), International Society of Limb Salvage (ISOLS), European Musculoskeletal Oncology Society (EMSOS), Asia Pacific Musculoskeletal Tumour Society, Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) and International Skeletal Society (ISS).

Dr. Ajay Puri is currently Professor and Head of Surgical Oncology, Chief of Orthopaedic, Oncology and Head of the Tissue Bank at Tata Memorial Centre, Mumbai, India. He served as President of the Asia Pacific Musculoskeletal Tumor Society, Founder President of the Indian Musculoskeletal Oncology Society and as past Chairman of the Indian Orthopaedic Association (Oncology). He is also Professor (courtesy faculty) of Materials Science and Engineering at the Department of Materials Science & Engineering, College of Engineering, University of North Texas, USA. He is actively involved in clinical, biomedical and basic research and is the principal investigator in many studies. He is a member of the Global Steering Committee of the International Sarcoma Kindred Study (ISKS), the largest multi institutional international trial aimed at understanding the genetic background of sarcomas. He has developed a low cost indigenous megaprosthesis for limb salvage after oncologic reconstruction that is now extensively used in the country and other Asian and African nations and has also pioneered and popularised novel methods of biological reconstruction after oncologic resection. He serves on the editorial board of Bone & Joint Journal (formerly JBJS.Br.), Bone & Joint-360, Bone & Joint - Open, Sarcoma and Frontiers in Orthopedic Surgery and has published more than a hundred and fifty papers as well as numerous book chapters.
