An adult black man is pictured here alone. He was diagnosed as having osteogenic sarcoma in his upper left arm. Surgeons performed a new procedure implanting a metal rod in place of the cancerous bone. Since muscle and tendon were saved, he is able to use his left arm. Surgeons could attempt this daring new technique since the cancer had not spread. Credit: Linda Bartlett (photographer).
