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...

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 ...

BACKGROUND In the management of a resected distal femoral or proximal tibial condyle as the result of tumor or trauma, a unicondylar osteoarticular allograft is currently the only reconstructive option that avoids the sacrifice of the unaffected condyle. The purposes of this study were to perform a survival analysis of unicondylar osteoarticular allografts of the knee and to evaluate the compli...

In comparison with the lower extremity, there is relatively paucity literature reporting survival and clinical results of allograft reconstructions after excision of a bone tumor of the upper extremity. We analyze the survival of allograft reconstructions in the upper extremity and analyze the final functional score according to anatomical site and type of reconstruction. A consecutive series o...

  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...

Reconstruction of the distal radius following tumour resection is challenging and various techniques are recorded. We retrospectively analysed the outcome of five patients (one male and four females) after reconstruction of the distal radius with osteoarticular allograft, following tumour resection. Mean followup was 32 months (range, 4-121). In three of the five patients the dominant limb was ...

PURPOSE The proximal humerus is a common location for both primary and metastatic bone tumors. There are numerous reconstruction options after surgical resection. There is no consensus on the ideal method of reconstruction. METHODS A systematic review was performed with a focus on the surgical reconstructive options for lesions involving the proximal humerus. RESULTS A total of 50 articles ...
