Help Shine a Light on Sarcoma

July is Sarcoma Awareness Month, a time to raise visibility for this rare cancer that affects the bone and soft tissue. With more than 70 subtypes, sarcoma remains a complex disease. But for the tens of thousands of Americans living with it, the impact is deeply personal and ongoing. 

The Musculoskeletal Tumor Registry (MsTR) helps clinicians and health systems track complications, functional outcomes, and quality of life in patients treated for sarcoma. Together, we’re paving the way toward better care and, ultimately, a cure. 

How You Can Get Involved 

  • Post in Yellow: Wear yellow and post a photo of yourself in July using #SarcomaStrong. Tag AAOS to help spotlight patients and the MsTR's impact 

  • Participate in the Registry: Not yet contributing data? Learn how to enroll and join a growing community improving care for sarcoma patients. 

  • Support the Registry: Make a tax-deductible donation to the MsTR by contacting Atusa Moreno.
