HIFU Treatment for Bone Cancer in India: A Non-Invasive Approach to Management

Clinical results have shown that HIFU is a safe, effective and feasible method of treating malignant bone tumours. It has the great advantage that limb salvage may be possible in patients who would otherwise require an amputation. The risk of the affected bone breaking following treatment is increased, therefore extra care is required in the post-therapy period. HIFU may be used alone or in combination with chemotherapy with curative intent. This can be as primary therapy or after failure of conventional treatment. For palliation, HIFU can reduce pain associated with malignancy, and improve quality of life.

Fig.1. DSA images obtained in a 22-year-old patient who underwent a single HIFU treatment for an osteosarcoma of the distal femur. A) Pre-HIFU image showing the fine capillary network within the tumour (arrow); B) Image obtained 3 months post-HIFU showing disappearance of the capillary network, consistent with tumour ablation (arrow).

Fig.2. Contrast-enhanced MR images obtained in a 45-year-old patient who underwent HIFU ablation for tibia osteosarcoma: A) Before HIFU, tumor vascular perfusion was obvious; B) Two weeks after HIFU, the absence of contrast enhancement on 11-weighted image in the treated tumour (arrow).

Fig.3. CT images obtained in a 22-year-old patient who underwent HIFU treatment for distal femur osteosarcoma: A1-2) Image obtained before HIFU showed tumour in the soft tissue (arrow), and bone cortex was destroyed by neoplastic tissue (arrow); B1-2) Image obtained 5 years after HIFU showed disappearance of tumour in the soft tissue, and the destroyed cortex was completely repaired by the normal tissue (arrow).

Fig.4.Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate ECT image obtained in a 10-year-old patient who underwent HIFU ablation for the treatment of a 46cm long right femoral and tibial osteosarcoma. This patient had previously received chemotherapy without success. He is currently in complete remission 18 months after HIFU. A) Image obtained before HIFU showed focal area of increased uptake, which corresponded to a local abnormality (arrow); B) Image obtained 2 weeks after HIFU showed that the tracer uptake of treated tumour disappeared completely in the treated region (arrow).
