HCG Cancer Hospital, K R Road
Bangalore
Dr. Pramod Chinder is a senior Orthopaedic Oncologist and Musculoskeletal Tumor Surgeon in Bengaluru with 18 years of specialist experience in the surgical management of bone and soft tissue tumors.
He currently serves as Director and Head of Orthopaedic Oncology at HCG Cancer Centre and has extensive expertise in biological and functional reconstruction following musculoskeletal tumor surgery.
His major clinical interests include limb salvage surgery, joint-preserving and growth-preserving tumor surgery, allograft reconstruction, non-invasive expandable prostheses, hand tumors and peripheral nerve tumors.
Dr. Pramod Chinder completed his MBBS and MS in Orthopaedics and later received advanced fellowship training in Hand and Reconstructive Microsurgery at the National University of Singapore and in Musculoskeletal Oncology at Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli in Italy.
He is also experienced in microsurgical reconstruction, neurotisation and advanced imaging-guided approaches for complex musculoskeletal tumors. His work focuses on achieving cancer control while preserving limb function and quality of life wherever clinically possible.
Limb salvage surgery aims to remove a bone or soft tissue tumour while preserving the affected limb and restoring function through reconstruction.
Osteosarcoma surgery focuses on complete tumour removal and may include limb-preserving reconstruction depending on tumour location and response to treatment.
Surgery for Ewing sarcoma is planned as part of multidisciplinary treatment and aims to achieve local tumour control while preserving function whenever possible.
Soft tissue sarcoma surgery involves wide tumour excision with careful reconstruction to achieve oncological clearance while maintaining limb function.
Surgical treatment of metastatic bone disease may be used to stabilise weakened bones, reduce pain and preserve mobility in selected patients.
Biological reconstruction uses techniques such as allografts and microsurgical procedures to restore bone and soft tissue after tumour removal.
Functional reconstruction aims to restore stability, movement and limb function following complex musculoskeletal tumour surgery.
Joint-preserving surgery removes the tumour while retaining the nearby joint when oncologically and technically feasible.
Growth-preserving surgery is particularly relevant in younger patients and aims to treat the tumour while preserving future limb growth when possible.
Allograft reconstruction uses donor bone to replace skeletal defects created after tumour removal and restore structural continuity.
Expandable prostheses are specialised implants that can support limb reconstruction in growing children after tumour surgery.
Hand tumour surgery requires careful removal of the tumour while preserving nerves, tendons and hand function wherever possible.
Peripheral nerve tumour surgery focuses on tumour removal while protecting or reconstructing nerve function through microsurgical techniques.
Microsurgical reconstruction uses fine surgical techniques to repair nerves, blood vessels and soft tissues following complex tumour excision.
