(M90.7*) Fracture of bone in neoplastic disease

Fracture of bone in neoplastic disease occurs when a tumor develops inside the bone and weakens the bone structure, making it more prone to fracture. the tumor can be benign or malignant, and its presence can be detected through imaging tests such as x-ray, ct scan, or mri. treatment of the fracture depends on the type of tumor and may involve surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.

Fracture of bone in neoplastic disease is caused by a combination of weakened bone structure due to the presence of cancerous cells, as well as the increased risk of trauma due to the tumor itself. as the tumor grows, it can weaken the surrounding bone, making it more prone to fracture. additionally, the tumor can increase the risk of traumatic injury to the area, leading to further weakening of the bone and eventual fracture.

Main Goal: To treat the fracture of bone in neoplastic disease.

• Administering pain medications
• Applying a cast or splint to immobilize the fracture
• Physical therapy to restore strength and range of motion
• Surgery to repair the fracture, if necessary
• Radiation therapy to reduce the risk of further fractures
• Chemotherapy to reduce tumor size and stabilize the fracture

To prevent fractures in neoplastic disease, it is important to focus on maintaining bone health and strength through a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin d, regular physical activity, and adequate rest. additionally, it is important to monitor the progression of the disease and seek medical attention immediately if any signs of bone weakness or fractures are observed.
