Lesensky J, Belzarena AC, Daniel M. Reconstruction with a double-constrained implant design after complex shoulder extra-articular resection. World J Surg Oncol 2023; 21:295. [PMID: 37723520 PMCID: PMC10506192 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-023-03173-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately, one-third of patients with tumors of proximal humerus will require an extra-articular resection to achieve oncologic margins. This procedure yields poor functional outcomes with a considerable rate of revisions. Unconstrained implants are prone to instability hindering also function of the elbow and hand, whereas constrained shoulder reconstructions suffer from early aseptic loosening of the glenoid component due to bone overload. The purpose of this study was to develop a constrained implant suitable for extra-articular resection with loss of function in deltoid and rotator cuff, which would provide both stability and passive motion, whilst also decreasing the risk of aseptic loosening of the glenoid component. METHODS In cooperation with Czech Technical University in Prague, we devised an implant consisting of two constrained joints in series connected by a dumbbell piece. The biomechanical analysis showed a reduction of load transfer to the glenoid component with a torque of 8.6 Nm capable of generating an 865-N pulling force on bone screw to just 0.07 Nm, hence shielding the glenoid component from undesired forces and decreasing the risk of aseptic loosening. Three patients with extra-articular resection with a total loss of function of both rotator cuff and deltoid muscle received this type of reconstruction. The average follow-up was 16 months. RESULTS The surgical technique is straightforward. The surgery took 175 min on average with average blood loss of 516 ml. There were no surgical- or implant-related complications. All three patients were pain-free and had a stable shoulder joint after the reconstruction. All had fully functional elbow, wrist, and hand joints. The average Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was 21/30 (70%). All patients were pleased with the results. CONCLUSION The presented innovative implant design has demonstrated to be a promising alternative for reconstruction in these challenging cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reconstruction after wide resection of a sarcoma arising in the shoulder girdle is challenging, and little evidence is available to compare short-term outcomes between pedicled-flap and free-flap reconstruction. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty-eight patients undergoing immediate reconstruction surgery with only a pedicled-flap (n = 18) and with a free-flap (n = 20) after sarcoma resection on the shoulder girdle between July 2005 and March 2022 were identified. One-to-one propensity score matching was performed to compare the postoperative complications. RESULTS Transferred flaps survived completely in 20 cases in the free-flap group. In the all-patient analysis of binary outcomes, the occurrences of total complications, takebacks, total flap complications, and flap dehiscence were higher in the pedicled-flap group than in the free-flap group. The propensity score-matched analysis showed the occurrence of total complications was significantly higher in the pedicled-flap group than the free-flap group (53.8% vs. 7.7%, p = 0.03). In the propensity score-matched analysis of continuous outcomes, the pedicled-flap group demonstrated a shorter operation time than the free-flap group (279 vs. 381 min, p = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This clinical study demonstrated the feasibility and reliability of a free-flap transfer for the defect after wide resection of a sarcoma arising in the shoulder girdle.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of patients received surgical treatment under the guidance of "West China Classification" of desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF) in the shoulder girdle. Methods The clinical data of 32 patients with DTF in the shoulder girdle admitted between June 2003 and December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, including 14 males and 18 females, aged 14-56 years with an average age of 36.8 years. The maximum diameter of the tumor was 7-19 cm, with an average of 11.1 cm. According to the "West China Classification" of DTF in the shoulder girdle, there were 4 cases of region Ⅰ, 3 cases of region Ⅱ, 6 cases of region Ⅲ, 3 cases of region Ⅳ, 5 cases of regions Ⅰ+Ⅱ, 5 cases of regions Ⅱ+Ⅲ, and 6 cases of regions Ⅰ+Ⅱ+Ⅲ. In addition, the involvement of blood vessels and nerves was also taken into consideration for choosing a surgical approach. Finally, 12 cases were operated via anteroposterior approach (group A), 14 via posterior approach (group B), and 6 via combined anterior-posterior approach (group C). The 1993 Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS93) score (including pain, limb function, satisfaction, hand position, hand flexibility, and lifting ability), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, range of motion (ROM) of shoulder joint (including flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction), and complications of patients in the 3 groups were recorded and compared. Results All the 32 patients were followed up 30-190 months, with an average of 94.6 months. At last follow-up, complications occurred in 5 cases (15.6%), including 2 cases (16.6%) in group A, 2 (14.3%) in group B, and 1 (16.6%) in group C. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications among the 3 groups ( P=1.000). Tumor recurrence occurred in 5 (15.6%) cases, including 1 (8.3%) case in group A, 2 (14.3%) in group B, and 1 (16.6%) in group C. No significant difference was found in the recurrence rate among the 3 groups ( P=1.000). At last follow-up, MSTS93 score of pain, limb function, satisfaction, hand flexibility, and hand position in groups A and B were significantly better than those in group C ( P<0.05), even though no significant difference existed between group A and group B ( P>0.05). The lifting ability score in group C was significantly lower than in group A ( P<0.05), and no significant difference was found between other groups ( P>0.05). The JOA score and flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction activities of shoulder in groups A and B were significantly better than those in group C ( P<0.05). The extension activity in group A was significantly better than that in group B ( P<0.05), the flexion activity in group B was significantly better than that in group A ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in other indexes between groups A and B ( P>0.05). Conclusion Taking a rational approach to fully expose and completely remove the tumor is the key point of surgical treatment for patients with DTF in the shoulder girdle. At the same time, preservation of vital structures and reconstruction of soft tissues should also be taken into consideration. Overall, surgical treatment under the guidance of "West China Classification" of DTF in the shoulder girdle has achieved satisfactory long-term effectiveness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Locally advanced malignancies of the upper torso and shoulder girdle (UT-SG) necessitate extensive resection and complex reconstruction. Due to the infrequent nature of these operations, a global reconstructive algorithm has not been defined. METHODS A retrospective review of all patients who received reconstructive surgery following malignant tumor extirpation in the UT-SG from 2008 to 2018 at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Factors predicting the need for flap reconstruction and risk for postoperative complications were evaluated. RESULTS In total, 252 procedures met inclusion criteria. The most common pathology was sarcoma (76%) and 52% were primary tumors. The median defect area was 112 cm2 (range 4-1350 cm2 ). Reconstructive techniques included pedicled flaps (46%), local tissue rearrangement (38%), and free flaps (16%). On univariate analysis, the probability of needing a free flap increased 39% when the defect size increased by 100 cm2 . The strongest independent predictors of requiring a free flap were major vessel exposure (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 4.92, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.36-17.84, P = .015) and major peripheral nerve exposure (adjusted OR = 3.2, 95% CI, 1.1-9.2, P = .031). CONCLUSION Despite the aggressive nature of their malignancies, patients requiring an UT-SG resection demonstrate high survival rates and therefore demand a durable reconstruction. Exposed critical structures and defect size were predictive of free tissue transfer.

Abstract
PURPOSE To retrospectively analyze the entire cohort of patients in the Republic of Slovenia diagnosed with bone sarcomas in the long bones or pelvis/sacrum/coccyx from January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2018, with an observational nationwide study, whereby all patients were evaluated by one single tumor board in the country. We evaluated surgical outcomes and tested whether survival of bone sarcoma patients depended on age, gender, histological diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cancer Registry of the Republic of Slovenia was screened for all ICD-10 diagnoses from C40.0 to C40.9 and C41.4 in the designated time frame, and the patients were then clinically followed up until the end of the observation period on June 1, 2019. RESULTS The cohort of 160 patients was treated surgically in 141 cases, 29 patients required subsequent revision(s) and cumulative endoprosthetic infection rate was 12.5%. In the follow-up, 54 patients died and the 2 patients were missing. Cumulative proportion of survival at 5/10 years was 61%/54%, respectively. After adjustment for age, gender and diagnosis, higher age (odds ratio 1.06 for each additional year), osteosarcoma (odds ratio 4.07) and Ewing sarcoma (odds ratio 11.68) were the significant risk factors of shorter oncological survival. CONCLUSION This is the first Slovenian nationwide cohort study of bone sarcoma patients, unique in its circumscribed geographic area and evaluation/treatment at a single center by a single tumor board. Although comparable to other countries, results show a grim picture and the lack of improvement in bone sarcoma survival within the last 20 years.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Combining massive bone allograft and vascularized fibula in intercalary reconstruction following resection of bone tumors represents a complex reconstructive procedure that requires specialists in microvascular surgery as well as orthopedic surgery. The purpose of our study was to examine the outcomes using this surgical technique in patients with bone tumors in terms of oncologic results, complications related to surgery, Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scores and duration of surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed 81 patients with femoral or tibial sarcomas who underwent intercalary resection and microsurgical reconstruction with massive bone allograft and vascularized fibula. There were 56 boys and 25 girls with a mean age of 13.4 years at the time of surgery. The patients' medical records were reviewed for clinical and functional outcomes as well as postoperative complications. The study group was comprised of 33 patients who underwent reconstruction of the femur with massive bone allograft and free vascularized fibula and 48 patients who underwent reconstruction of the tibia with massive bone allograft and free or pedicle vascularized fibula. The mean length of resection was 15.9 cm (8-31 cm). The functional evaluation of the patients was done at the end of the follow-up using MSTS score for the lower limb. All patients had at least a 2-year follow-up. RESULTS The overall limb salvage rate was 94%, although many patients required re-operation after the procedure. Complications occurred in 24 patients, 18 of which underwent additional surgical procedures. They included fractures of the massive bone allograft-vascularized fibula construct with or without implant failure (19) and deep infection (5). After surgical or conservative treatment, all the fractures successfully healed. The overall MSTS functional score was good to excellent in 91% of patients. CONCLUSIONS The combination of massive bone allograft and vascularized fibula seems to be a reasonable option for reconstruction of diaphyseal defects following intercalary resection of bone tumors. Although there was a high rate of complications and therefore re-operations, the biology of vascularized fibula was able to save the reconstruction in most of the cases that had complications.
