About Dr. Accardo
Dr. Shaun Accardo is a board-certified Hip, Knee, Musculoskeletal Oncology, & Trauma Specialist at BROC’s Bluebonnet Campus in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Dr. Accardo earned his Bachelor of Science in Mathematics at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge before going on to earn his Doctor of Medicine at LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans. After completing Orthopaedic Surgery Residency at Louisiana State University in New Orleans, Dr. Accardo was further trained in Musculoskeletal Oncology at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida. He was also granted and completed an international traveling Fellowship in both Musculoskeletal Oncology and Orthopaedic Trauma in the UK, Switzerland, and Italy. Dr. Accardo’s specific clinical interests include benign and malignant bone tumors in adults and children, benign and malignant soft tissue tumors in adults and children, limb preservation/salvage surgery for bone and soft tissue tumors, and complex orthopaedic trauma.
Metastatic bone disease is cancer that originates in one part of the body (most commonly breast, lung, thyroid, kidney, and prostate) and spreads to the bone. Cancer cells can travel to any bone in the body and can cause pain and decrease mobility. Cancer cells can weaken the bone and cause a fracture. Our goal is to identify and treat patients before a fracture occurs.
