Research

Mayo Clinic physicians have performed pivotal research on chondrosarcoma treatment and outcomes. Mayo Clinic researchers have helped:

  • Define the outcomes of people with pelvic chondrosarcoma
  • Expand knowledge about some of the rarest varieties of chondrosarcoma
  • Improve the ability to tailor the treatment of less-aggressive chondrosarcomas

Mayo Clinic doctors and researchers continue to study new ways to diagnose and treat chondrosarcomas. Learn more about orthopedics research.

Cancer research is conducted in coordination with Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center. Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center receives funding from the National Cancer Institute and is designated as a comprehensive cancer center — recognition for an institution's scientific excellence and multidisciplinary resources focused on cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment.

Research: It's all about patients

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Joseph Sirven, M.D., Professor of Neurology, Mayo Clinic: Mayo's mission is about the patient. The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
