Endoprosthetic reconstruction for giant cell tumors of the distal tibia: a short term review.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Custom-made endoprosthetic reconstruction for distal tibia tumors is a viable option of treatment in carefully selected patients. It maintains satisfactory function and provides good pain relief. We report four cases of giant cell tumors of the distal tibia successfully treated by endoprosthetic reconstruction. This is a feasible option in cases of this nature and offers a better function than the other available options.

Published studies have mainly focused on case reports, and thus there is no consistent treatment strategy for this tumor at this location. This retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the oncological and functional results of 2 di...

Abstract Background: Resection of the distal end of the radius is indicated in the treatment of locally aggressive primary benign and malignant bone tumors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the technique of osteoarticular allograft reconstruction of the distal radius after wide excision of a giant-cell tumor. Methods: We analyzed 15 patients retrospectively who had reconstruction of t...
