Limb salvage in osteosarcoma using autoclaved tumor-bearing bone

BACKGROUND Tumor prostheses currently give the best short- and medium-term results for limb-salvage reconstruction procedures in the treatment of bone tumors. However, in developing countries, the cost of a tumor prosthesis is beyond the reach of much of the population. We report the use of autoclaved tumor-bearing bone in 10 patients, as an affordable alternative to the use of prostheses. ME...

Advances in limb salvage treatment of osteosarcoma

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor; its standard treatment includes neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgery. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has significantly improved the 5-year survival and limb salvage rates in osteosarcoma since the 1870s. The survival rate of patients with limb salvage was not inferior to that of amputees, and therefore, limb salvage has become th...

LATE EMBOLECTOMY FOR LIMB OR KNEE SALVAGE IN ACUTE LOWER LIMB ISCHEMIA: A NEW PROTOCOL

Embolectomy has long been the gold standard for treating limbs acutely threatened by arterial occlusion. Delayed embolectomy has not been investigated adequately due to the belief that accompanying mortality and morbidity render the case futile. Following our previous experience with late arterial repair for leg or knee salvage I we applied the same principle to limbs threatened with prolo...

LATE ARTERIAL REPAIR FOR LOWER LIMB OR KNEE SALVAGE

The objective of this report is to prove that even after development of ischemic necrosis of the muscles and nerves, we can still save the extremity or the knee and even several days after arterial injury, perform arterial repair and other mentioned procedures. Thus we can retain a functionally satisfactory leg or knee joint, which is far better than classic above-knee amputation and utili...

Limb salvage procedure in occlusion of the infrapopliteal arteries.

BACKGROUND/AIM Limb salvage is a procedure for treatment of the causes of ischemia in the peripheral arteries of the lower limbs. This procedure consists of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of arteries of the infrapopliteal segment in the lower limbs, endovascular stents implantation and selective intraarterial thrombolytic therapy. The main PTA principle is balloon dilatation of a b...
