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...
متن کاملNon-invasive distal femoral expandable endoprosthesis for limb-salvage surgery in paediatric tumours.
We report our early experience with the use of a non-invasive distal femoral expandable endoprosthesis in seven skeletally immature patients with osteosarcoma of the distal femur. The patients had a mean age of 12.1 years (9 to 15) at the time of surgery. The prosthesis was lengthened at appropriate intervals in outpatient clinics, without anaesthesia, using the principle of electromagnetic ind...
متن کاملLATE 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...
متن کاملCemented versus cementless endoprostheses for lower limb salvage surgery.
PURPOSE To determine the survival and failures of cemented vs cementless endoprostheses. METHODS We retrospectively studied 232 patients treated with lower limb salvage surgery and reconstruction using cementless and cemented endoprostheses from 2002 to 2007. We compared survival and failures of the endoprostheses regarding age, gender, body mass index (BMI), diagnosis, site of reconstruction...
متن کاملThe early results of massive osteoarticular allograft in the surgical treatment of lower limb bone tumors
This is the early results of 20 cases of massive osteoarticular allograft performed for reconstruction of lower limb s after resection of bone tumors. These cases include 7 distal femur and hemiarticular ,6 proximal tibio and hemiarticular, 3 total knee joints and 4 proximal femur with total hip replacement. Bone allografts were taken at steril condition from early postmortum cadavers and st...
