Relevant Survey:
- Body Part: Upper and Lower Extremities

This clinician-administered scoring system is widely used to assess limb function and pain after surgery for bone and soft tissue tumors.
Description:
The MSTS Score evaluates six parameters, each scored from 0–5, to produce an overall functional outcome score (0–30). For lower extremities: pain, function, emotional acceptance, supports, walking ability, and gait are assessed. For upper extremities: pain, function, emotional acceptance, hand positioning, dexterity, and lifting ability. The MSTS is a gold standard in orthopedic oncology outcome measurement.
