Dislocation of the hip remains a major complication after periacetabular tumour resection and endoprosthetic reconstruction. The position of the acetabular component is an important modifiable factor for surgeons in determining the risk of postoperative dislocation. We investigated the significance of horizontal, vertical, and sagittal displacement of the hip centre of rotation (COR) on postoperative dislocation using a CT-based 3D model, as well as other potential risk factors for dislocation. A total of 122 patients who underwent reconstruction following resection of periacetabular tumour between January 2011 and January 2020 were studied. The risk factors for dislocation were investigated with univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis on patient-specific, resection-specific, and reconstruction-specific variables.Aims
Methods
Iliac wing (Type I) and iliosacral (Type I/IV) pelvic resections for a primary bone tumour create a large segmental defect in the pelvic ring. The management of this defect is controversial as the surgeon may choose to reconstruct it or not. When no reconstruction is undertaken, the residual ilium collapses back onto the remaining sacrum forming an iliosacral pseudarthrosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term oncological outcome, complications, and functional outcome after pelvic resection without reconstruction. Between 1989 and 2015, 32 patients underwent a Type I or Type I/IV pelvic resection without reconstruction for a primary bone tumour. There were 21 men and 11 women with a mean age of 35 years (15 to 85). The most common diagnosis was chondrosarcoma (50%, n = 16). Local recurrence-free, metastasis-free, and overall survival were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Patient function was evaluated using the Musculoskeletal Tumour Society (MSTS) and Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS).Aims
Methods
The aims of this retrospective study were to report the feasibility
of using 3D-printing technology for patients with a pelvic tumour
who underwent reconstruction. A total of 35 patients underwent resection of a pelvic tumour
and reconstruction using 3D-printed endoprostheses between September
2013 and December 2015. According to Enneking’s classification of
bone defects, there were three Type I lesions, 12 Type II+III lesions,
five Type I+II lesions, two Type I+II+III lesions, ten type I+II+IV
lesions and three type I+II+III+IV lesions. A total of three patients
underwent reconstruction using an iliac prosthesis, 12 using a standard
hemipelvic prosthesis and 20 using a screw-rod connected hemipelvic
prosthesis.Aims
