OverviewThe management of pediatric osteosarcoma patients is best accomplished within a well-integrated, multidisciplinary team. This comprehensive one-day symposium is designed to equip healthcare professionals with the
latest insights into advances, best practices, and ongoing challenges that impact both clinical outcomes and the overall patient experience.
Jointly presented by the Departments of Surgery and Pediatrics at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the program underscores the importance of a coordinated approach among diverse team members. Focused topics will cover
evidence-based advances in medical management, including
clinical trial updates,
surgical innovations,
diagnostic techniques, and
recent translational research initiatives. A special segment will
feature the patient and family perspective, offering valuable insight into the lived experience of care.
The overarching goal is to provide attendees with the tools and strategies needed to deliver state-of-the-art, collaborative care to enhance quality of life for this unique patient population, and
explore scientific advancements moving us closer to cure.Following the symposium, registrants will receive
access to an online syllabus featuring select PDF slides from faculty presentations and recorded session videos.
The
target audience for this symposium includes physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, social workers, physical therapists, psychologists, and students who care for the pediatric osteosarcoma patient.
Objectives
- Discuss the multidisciplinary approach to managing complex pediatric osteosarcoma cases
