Hello. My name is Richard. I have dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma of the left hip. Diagnosed 20 months ago. Because it has metastasised I have multiple tumours in my skeleton. As I understand the situation surgery as soon as possible is the only way to stop DC. If I were you I would be getting radical surgery and a hip replacement as soon as possible. There are no known success fuel treatments for this disease . My best advice is do not delay. Best of luck. Happy to answer any more specific questions.

Hi Richat, my name is Stella. I have already had 2 surgeries on my leg, but I have a new recurrence in the same place. There is currently a clinical trial for a drug, it is also available at the Mayo Clinic.

Hello Richard, where are you being treated?
