Mehmet Taner Özdemir, M.D.

Orthopedics- Sarcoma surgery

SHORT BIOGRAPHY


He was born in Erzurum, Turkey, in 1974. He entered Gülhane Military Medical Academy (GMMA) in 1990 and graduated in 1996. He then reentered GMMA for orthopedic specialization in 1996 and began his assistantship, which he completed in 2003. His specialization thesis was on “Composite Bone Graft Closure of Large Bone Defects Resulting from Bone Resections.” He conducted both clinical and experimental studies on this topic. His experimental research focused on cell culture and the pathway from mesenchymal stem cells to mature osteoblast formation, and his preclinical studies investigated the closure of critical bone defects in animal models.

Throughout his assistantship and specialization, he conducted clinical and experimental studies related to orthopedic oncology. Most of his national and international publications are on orthopedic oncology. He has 13 publications in international refereed journals, 5 in national refereed journals, and has presented numerous oral and poster presentations at national and international congresses.

From 2002 to 2003, he worked with Prof. Dr. Joseph M. Lane at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, USA. Prof. Lane is still the president of the musculoskeletal oncology and metabolic bone disease departments at Weill Cornell Medical College. During his assistantship, he also collaborated with Prof. Dr. Kaan Erler in the field of orthopedic oncology. His main areas of interest in orthopedics are orthopedic oncology, trauma surgery, and arthroscopy.
