I am 70 years old and my major reconstruction surgery was October 24, 2016. I have all my functionality. Last year we discovered that the Chondrosarcoma returned on the other side. Dr. Moore removed it and I am still fully functional. Again, my guidance if you want quality of life you have to get a consult with Dr. Moore. If you want to discus send me a private message with your cell and I will call you.
