O3102 RESULTS OF ACETABULAR RECONSTRUCTION USING HOMOLATERAL PROXIMAL FEMORAL AUTOGRAFT AND TOTAL HIP PROSTHESIS

Abstract

Aims: The authors report oncological and functional results after 15 acetabular reconstructions, followed tumor resection, with an original technique using homo-lateral proximal femoral autograft and total hip prosthesis. Material and method: The modiþed Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Score (MSTS) and the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) were used for functional analysis. Functional results were available for only 10 patients who presented with a minimal of 2 years follow-up. Results: Fifteen consecutive patients, 9 men and 6 women with a median age of 50 years, were managed in our department for acetabular bone malignant tumor. The tumors involved the zones II in 5 patients, the zones II and III in 5 patients. The tumors included 10 chon-drosarcomas, 1 malignant þbrous histiocytoma, 1 radio-induced sarcoma, 1 myeloma and 2 metastasis. The mean follow-up was 31 months (Range, 12 to 50 months). Local recurrence occurred in 1 case and metastases in 3 cases. Three patients died of tumoral disease and one of intercurrent disease. Eight complications were observed: aseptic failure (n=1), obturator nerve damage (n=1), deep infection (n=4), skin necrosis (n=2), pros-thesis dislocations (n=1) and deep venous thrombosis (n=1). Five revision were performed. The mean MTS was 72% (range, 40 to 96%) and the mean TESS was 82.5% (range, 56 to 86%). Fusion occurred in all reconstructions and all patients recovered an active hip abduction and ßexion. Discussion: This original technique, using an autograft and a standard total hip prosthesis, is available for zone II and III acetabular reconstructions.
