Long-term Results of Osteoarticular Allograft Reconstruction in Children with Distal Femoral Bone Tumors
Background: There is no consensus regarding the best method of reconstruction in pediatric population following thewide resection of malignant bone tumors. More exploration of the complications of osteoarticular reconstruction leads toless existing controversy of this type of reconstruction, which is the main point of this article.Methods: Long-term outcomes and complications of osteoarticular ...
متن کاملGait analysis in tumor patients after distal femoral resection and implantation of a megaprosthesis.
We analysed nine patients who had had a megaprosthesis implanted into the distal femur and knee joint for treatment of sarcomas. Data obtained from the leg operated on were compared with those from the contralateral side and healthy volunteers. Gait data, kinematics, ground reaction forces and the EMG from five muscles around the knee joint were analysed by means of a video-based analysis syste...
متن کاملProximal femoral megaprosthesis for failed total hip arthroplasty.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical outcome and complications of megaprostheses for massive proximal femoral bone loss after failed total hip arthroplasty. METHODS Between June 1997 and December 2002, 12 patients (12 hips) with massive proximal femoral deficiencies had reconstruction of the hip using proximal femoral megaprostheses. The average age of the patients ...
متن کاملModular megaprosthesis in metastatic bone disease of the femur.
The treatment of bone metastases is frequently palliative, aiming to achieve satisfactory pain control and to prevent or treat pathological fractures. For lesions involving the femur, internal fixation frequently fails; therefore, prosthetic reconstruction may be the optimal choice for treatment. This article retrospectively reviews our experience with femoral bone metastases between 1999 and 2...
متن کاملCemented Distal Femoral Endoprostheses for Musculoskeletal Tumor: Improved Survival of Modular versus Custom Implants
BACKGROUND Advocates of newer implant designs cite high rates of aseptic loosening and failure as reasons to abandon traditional cemented endoprosthetic reconstruction of the distal femur. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We asked whether newer, modular distal femoral components had improved survivorship compared with older, custom-casted designs. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 254 pati...
