Three-dimensional printed customized uncemented unipolar prosthesis combined with ligament reconstruction for tumorous defect of the distal femur in children. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:1100. [PMID: 36527043 PMCID: PMC9756496 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-06053-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemiarthroplasty following tumor resection of the distal femur in children provides a chance to preserve the proximal tibial physis for limb elongation. Based on three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, the uncemented unipolar prosthesis with joint stability reinforced structures (JSRSs) was custom-designed for our cases. This study aimed to describe the design and assess the short-term outcomes of this refined prosthetic hemiarthroplasty. METHODS Seven patients (four females and three males) received 3D-printed customized uncemented unipolar prosthesis for hemiarthroplasty after removal of the distal femur, from September 2019 to October 2020 at our Orthopedics department. The limb function, growth of the preserved proximal tibial physis, joint stability, and limb length discrepancy (LLD) were assessed. Complications were recorded. RESULTS Six patients survived with no evidence of metastasis or local recurrence at the last follow-up, and one patient died of lung metastasis at 19 months postoperatively. Follow-up ranged from 19 to 32 months, with an average of 26 months. Elongation of the tibia was observed in all cases. At the last follow-up, four patients exhibited equal growth length compared with the healthy contralateral tibia. LLD ranged from 0.8 to 1.6 cm with a mean of 1.3 cm. The average knee range of motion was 95.3° of flexion and 4.5° of extension. All patients achieved satisfactory postoperative limb function with a mean MSTS score of 25.8. The results of the drawer, Lachman, and pivot shift tests were negative in all patients. During follow-up, painless joint space narrowing was observed in two patients. The screw for ligament fixation loosened in one of the seven patients at 17 months postoperatively. No subluxation of the joint, angular deformity, or breakage of the implant was detected in the remaining patients. CONCLUSIONS 3D-printed customized uncemented unipolar prosthesis with JSRS would be a good choice for reconstructing tumorous defect in the distal femur in children.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OGS) is the most common primary bone tumor in children and adolescents which requires a multidisciplinary approach to management. Although chemotherapy and surgery can cure more than half of localized OGS cases, the unique challenges faced by resource-limited countries like India make this outcome difficult to achieve. Various questions in the management of OGS including role of high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) in neoadjuvant setting, triplet vs doublet chemotherapy, intensification of chemotherapy based on response in setting of doublet, and indigenous prosthesis in setting of limb salvage need to be defined. Similarly, in the metastatic and recurrent setting, questions regarding intent of treatment, indications of chemotherapy, timing of surgery, and role of targeted therapies need clarification. Lack of randomized trials from India makes definite conclusions difficult, but an attempt can be made to define the best approach in the Indian scenario from available evidence. Hence, a critical review of literature from India and the West was done to define possible management approaches and highlight the lacuna for future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no agreement about the best reconstructive option following resection of proximal humerus tumors. The purpose of this study was to compare the functional outcomes of endoprosthesis reconstruction versus nail cement spacer reconstruction after wide resection of proximal humeral tumors. METHODS This retrospective comparative study included 58 patients with proximal humerus tumors who had undergone tumor resection and reconstruction with modular endoprosthesis (humeral hemiarthroplasties) or cement spacer. Medical records were reviewed for the epidemiological, clinical, radiological, and operative data. Lung metastasis, local recurrence, and complication were also reviewed. The functional outcome was evaluated using the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scoring (MSTS) system. RESULTS Nineteen patients with a mean age of 33.4 ± 17.5 years underwent reconstruction by modular endoprosthesis, and 39 patients with a mean age of 24.6 ± 14.3 years underwent reconstruction by cement spacer. The mean MSTS score was 24.8 ± 1.1 in the endoprosthesis group and 23.9 ± 1.4 in the spacer group, P = 0.018. Complications were reported in 5 (26.3%) patients in the endoprosthesis group and 11 (28.2%) patients in the spacer group, P = 0.879. There were no statistically significant differences in the functional outcomes in both patient groups with or without axillary or deltoid resection. CONCLUSIONS Both endoprostheses and cement spacers are durable reconstructions with almost equal functional outcomes with no added advantage of the expensive endoprosthesis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In the last years, limb salvage has become the gold standard treatment over amputation. Today, 90% of extremity osteogenic sarcomas can be treated with limb salvage surgery. However, these reconstructions are not exempt from complications. Massive allografts have been associated to high risk of nonunion (12-57%), fracture (7-30%) and infection (5-21%). Association of vascularized periosteum flap to a massive bone allograft (MBA) has shown to halve the average time of allograft union in clinical series, even compared to vascularized fibular flap. Creeping substitution process has been reported in massive allograft when periosteum flap was associated. However, we have little data about whether it results into allograft revitalization. We hypothesize that the association of a periosteum flap to a bone isograft promotes isograft revitalization, defined as the colonization of the devitalized bone by new-form vessels and viable osteocytes, turning it vital. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-four New Zealand white male rabbits underwent a 10 mm segmental radial bone defect. In 24 rabbits the bone excision included the periosteum (controls); in 20 rabbits (periosteum group) bone excision was performed carefully detaching periosteum in order to preserve it. Cryopreserved bone isograft from another rabbit was trimmed and placed to the defect gap and was fixed with a retrograde intramedullar 0.6 mm Kirschner wire. Rabbits were randomized and distributed in 3 subgroups depending on the follow-up (control group: 5 rabbits in 5-week follow up group, 8 rabbits in 10-week follow-up group, 7 rabbits in 20-week follow-up group; periosteum group: 5 rabbits in 5-week follow up group, 7 rabbits in 10-week follow-up group, 7 rabbits in 20-week follow-up group). Fluoroscopic images of rabbit forelimb were taken after sacrifice to address union. Each specimen was blindly evaluated in optical microscope (magnification, ×4) after hematoxylin and eosin staining to qualitative record: presence of new vessels and osteocytes in bone graft lacunae (yes/no) to address revitalization, presence of callus (yes/no) and woven bone and cartilage tissue area (mm2 ) to address remodeling (osteoclast resorption of old bone and substitution by osteoblastic new bone formation). RESULTS No isograft revitalization occurred in any group, but it was observed bone graft resorption and substitution by new-formed bone in periosteum group. This phenomenon was accelerated in 5-week periosteum group (control group: 49.5 ± 9.6 mm2 vs. periosteum group: 34.9 ± 10.4 mm2 ; p = .07). Remodeled lamellar bone was observed in both 20-week groups (control group: 6.1 ± 6.3 mm2 vs. periosteum group: 5.8 ± 3.0 mm2 , p = .67). Periosteum group showed complete integration and graft substitution, whereas devitalized osteons were still observed in 20-week controls. All periosteum group samples showed radiographic union through a bone callus, whereas controls showed nonunion in eight specimens (Union rate: control group 60% vs. periosteum group 100%, p = .003). CONCLUSIONS Association of vascularized periosteum to a massive bone isograft has shown to accelerate bone graft substitution into a newly formed bone, thus, no bone graft revitalization occurs.

Abstract
PURPOSE While limb-sparing surgery is now possible for more than 80% of patients with bone tumours, wide resection is often required, necessitating bone reconstruction. This paper aims to present a surgical technique that combines the advantages of a hollow, titanium, custom-made prosthesis and the biological aspects of microsurgical flaps and bone graft. PATIENTS AND METHODS From June 2016 to September 2017 at our institution, six consecutive patients with skeletal tumours underwent one-stage reconstructive surgery with concomitant implantation of a 3D-printed prosthesis. RESULTS At an average follow-up of 30 months (range: 18-45), no early complications were observed, and no implant removals were needed. One patient experienced a delayed haematogenous deep infection, which healed after surgical debridement. Three patients died of their underlying disease 18, 22, and 23 months after surgery, respectively. All flaps and custom reconstructions were successful, with primary osseointegration at a mean of four months (range: 2-7). Patients' average Musculoskeletal Tumour Society score was 23.2 (range: 18-28). CONCLUSION A hollow, custom-made, titanium prosthesis filled with bone graft, used in conjunction with a microsurgical flap, may offer good osseointegration in different anatomic locations among a patient population with a high risk of infection, pseudarthrosis, and long-term mechanical complications. The surgical technique's advantages are preliminarily demonstrated. Further studies with longer follow-up periods and larger sample sizes are required to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Limb salvage surgery refers to orthopaedic procedures designed to resect tumors and reconstruct limbs. Improvements in managing malignant bone lesions have led to a dramatic shift in limb salvage procedures. Orthopaedic surgeons now employ four main reconstructive procedures: endoprosthesis, autograft, bulk allograft, and allograft prosthetic composite. While each approach has its advantages, each technique is associated with complications. Furthermore, knowledge of procedure specific imaging findings can lead to earlier complication diagnosis and improved clinical outcomes. The aim of this article is to review leading reconstructive options available for limb salvage surgery and present a case series illustrating the associated complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excision of bone tumors and endoprosthetic reconstruction allow patients early weightbearing and a potential functional advantage compared with amputation. These reconstructions do not restore the limb to normal status, however, and patients are subject to complications that may result in revision or loss of the limb. Because better understanding of these complications based on current information might help the patient and surgeon in decision-making, we undertook a systematic review of studies published on this topic. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What are the primary modes and proportion of failure of tumor endoprostheses in patients undergoing reconstruction after excision of primary extremity bone sarcomas? METHODS We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for all studies published from April 15, 1998, to April 15, 2018. Three reviewers independently reviewed studies reporting endoprosthetic reconstruction survival and events requiring revision for primary extremity bone tumors treated with endoprosthetic reconstruction for inclusion and performed independent data extraction. We excluded all studies with fewer than five patients, any systematic review/meta-analyses, and any study not reporting on primary extremity bone tumors. All discrepancies were resolved by the study's senior author. Data extracted from included studies were any reoperation event for wound dehiscence, any operative fixation for a pathologic fracture, and any revision of the primary endoprosthesis for implant wear or breakage, deep infection not amenable to prosthesis retention, or for local recurrence. We assessed the overall quality of the evidence with the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) approach with a higher MINORS score representative of a more methodologically rigorous study with a total possible score of 16 points for noncomparative and 24 points for comparative studies. Forty-nine studies met criteria for inclusion from an initial search return of 904 studies, of which no studies were randomized controlled trials. From a total patient population of 2721, there was a mean followup of 93 months (range, 1-516 months) with loss to followup or death occurring in 447 of 2118 (21%) patients with six studies not providing loss to followup data. The mean MINORS score was 14 for prospective studies and 11 for retrospective studies. RESULTS Overall, there were 1283 reoperations among the 2721 (47%) patients. Reoperation for mechanical endoprosthetic events (soft tissue dehiscence or periarticular soft tissue instability, aseptic loosening, or implant wear/fracture) occurred in 907 of 2721 (33%) patients. Aseptic loosening occurred at a mean of 75 months (range, 1-376 months) in 212 of 315 patients (67%). Deep infection requiring removal of the initial prosthesis occurred in 247 of 2721 (9%) patients with deep infection occurring at a mean of 24 months (range, 1-372 months) in the 190 infections (77%) with time to infection data available. Local recurrence rates requiring revision or amputation occurred in 129 (5%) of all patients. There was an overall primary endoprosthesis survival rate without any surgical reintervention of 63% among reporting studies at a mean of 79 months followup. CONCLUSIONS Failures of endoprosthetic reconstructions after extremity tumor surgery are common, most often resulting from implant wear or fracture, aseptic loosening, and infection. Importantly, the aggregated data are the first to attempt to quantify the time to specific complication types within this patient population. Deep infection not amenable to endoprosthesis retention appears to occur approximately 2 years postoperatively in most patients, with aseptic loosening occurring most commonly at 75 months. Although endoprosthetic reconstruction is one of the most common forms of reconstruction after bone tumor resection, the quality of published evidence regarding this procedure is of low quality with high loss to followup and data quality limiting interstudy analysis. The quality of the evidence is low with high loss to followup and inconsistent reporting of times to reintervention events. Although the most common modes of endoprosthetic failure in this population are well known, creation of quality prospective, collaborative databases would assist in clarifying and informing important elements of the followup process for these patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Purpose To examine the frequency of computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy sampling errors in chondrosarcomas, as well as the impact of these errors and the achieved surgical margins on local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS). Material and methods A total of 68 consecutive patients treated for chondrosarcoma from 2000–2015 were retrospectively reviewed with a minimum follow-up duration of 2 years. Results The primary location was at the extremities in 46 patients (67.6%) and at the axial skeleton in 22 patients (32.4%). Seven patients underwent planned intralesional curettage. Surgical margins were assessed in the remaining 53 patients and included 21 wide (39.6%), 25 marginal (47.1%), and seven intralesional (13.2%) resections. Biopsy sampling errors occurred in ten patients (14.7%). LRFS was 82.2±7.8% at 5 years and 76.9±7.8% at 10 years. An intact anatomical barrier was associated with the most preferable LRFS of 89±10.5% after 10 years. DSS was 79.2±8.5% at 5 years and 75.5±6.4% at 10 years. The metric distance of the surgical margin and the presence of a biopsy sampling error did not affect either LRFS or DSS. Conclusion Even though histological grading in chondrosarcoma is difficult, sampling errors in preoperative biopsies are relatively rare and do not adversely affect outcomes. The presence of an anatomical barrier has a greater impact on LRFS than the metric distance of the surgical margins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no consensus regarding the best method of reconstruction in pediatric population following the wide resection of malignant bone tumors. More exploration of the complications of osteoarticular reconstruction leads to less existing controversy of this type of reconstruction, which is the main point of this article. METHODS Long-term outcomes and complications of osteoarticular allograft reconstruction of primary distal femoral bone sarcomas in 22 children with mean age of 10.7 years old were reviewed in this study. Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scoring system was used for functional evaluation of the allografts. RESULTS With an average follow-up time of 81 months, the outcomes of 16 patients with allografts at the final follow up were evaluated. As expected, Limb length discrepancy (LLD) was observed in all patients (mean LLD= 2.73cm), which was significantly correlated to allograft survival time (P<0.001). Degenerative joint disease (DJD) was also seen in all patients and its grade was also significantly correlated to allograft survival time (P<0.001). The mean MSTS-score was 74% at the latest follow-up, ranging from 60% to 90%. Five and 10 year survival rate of allografts were found to be 93.3% and 62.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION Osteoarticular allograft reconstruction could result in several complications including DJD. Despite its considerable biologic advantage over endoprosthesis, osteoarticular allograft reconstruction is a long-lasting but still a temporary solution before performing megaprosthesis. This allows patients to preserve their remaining physis for limb growth and become old enough for an adult megaprosthesis.
