We analysed the influence of the
Survival rates and local control after resection of a sarcoma of the pelvis compare poorly to those of the limbs and have a high incidence of complications. The outcome for patients who need a hindquarter amputation (HQA) to treat a pelvic sarcoma is poor. Our aim was to evaluate the patient, tumour, and reconstructive factors that affect the survival of the patients who undergo HQA for primary or recurrent pelvic sarcoma. We carried out a retrospective review of all sarcoma patients who had undergone a HQA in a supraregional sarcoma unit between 1996 and 2018. Outcomes included oncological, surgical, and survival characteristics.Aims

The aims of this study were to evaluate the long-term outcome
of surgery for bone or soft-tissue metastases from renal cell carcinoma
(RCC) and to determine factors that affect prognosis. Between 1993 and 2014, 58 patients underwent surgery for bone
or soft-tissue metastases from RCC at our hospital. There were 46
men and 12 women with a mean age of 60 years (25 to 84). The mean
follow-up period was 52 months (1 to 257). The surgical sites included
the spine (33 patients), appendicular skeleton (ten patients), pelvis (eight
patients), thorax (four patients), and soft tissue (three patients).
