He believes that limb saving surgeries can be done in majority of bone and soft tissue sarcomas.

Dr Rajat is the first surgeon in the region to successfully do an “Extensor apparatus preserving Extra- articular resection of distal femur with megaprosthesis reconstruction” in a private sector.

Dr Rajat is also the first surgeon in the region to start limb salvage surgeries using “Extra-Corporeal Radiation Therapy” technique in private sector in which the bone affected with cancer is removed enbloc (in one piece) and sent for high dose radiation therapy. The irradiated bone is then fixed back to the parent bone with plate and screws. This technique not only helps in saving the limb but also helps in preserving the natural joint.

He’s started limb salvage surgeries with pedicled cryotherapy technique for Malignant bone tumours in the region in the private sector.
