Abstract
Background Pubic defects resulting from type III hemipelvectomy are commonly not reconstructed due to the need to preserve the weight-bearing axis. However, the opening of the anterior pelvic ring will inevitably lead to increased pelvic instability. To improve long-term pelvic stability, three-dimensional (3D)-printed customized prostheses were designed to reconstruct pubic defects. This study presents and evaluates the short-term clinical outcomes and complications from the use of this construct. Methods Five patients who underwent type III hemipelvectomy and 3D-printed customized prosthesis reconstruction at our institution between 2017 and 2019 were retrospectively analysed. Operation time and blood loss during the operation were recorded. Local and functional recovery was assessed. Prosthetic position and osseointegration were evaluated. Oncology results and complications were recorded. Results The prostheses consisted of three with stems and two without. The mean follow-up time was 23.6 months. At the last follow-up, all five patients were alive with no evidence of disease. No deep infections or local recurrence had occurred. The mean blood loss and mean intraoperative time were 1680 ml and 294 min, respectively. The mean functional MSTS score at the final follow-up was 29.8. Fretting wear around the prosthetic stem was found in 3 patients, while bone wear on the normal-side pubis was found in 2 patients. Osseointegration was observed in all patients. Conclusions 3D-printed customized prostheses for reconstructing pubic bone defects after type III hemipelvectomy showed acceptable early outcomes. The good outcomes were inseparable from the precision prosthesis design, strict surgical procedures, and sensible postoperative management.

Abstract
Background This study is to describe the detailed design and surgical techniques of three-dimensional (3D)-printed customized prosthesis for pubic bone defect. Patients and methods Five patients under type III resections were included in this study. Based on radiography data, 3D pelvic model was established and virtual surgery was simulated. Detailed anatomy data were measured including the size and arc of normal pubis, the size of residual bone in acetabular side. Different fixation ways were considered according to shape of defect. After features modification and porous structure design, prostheses were fabricated. The osteotomy guides and plastic models were used during surgery. Result Of 5 cases, the prostheses consist of the type with stem (3, 60%) and the type without stem (2, 40%). Mean follow-up period was 13.6 months (range, 8-24 months). For partial pubis removed cases, the mean length and width of narrowest part of normal superior pubis were 13.19 mm (range, 12.51-14.12 mm) and 7.80 mm (range, 7.18-8.26 mm) respectively. Mean arc of normal pubis was 2.71 rad (range, 2.66-2.73 rad). For the entire pubis resection cases, the mean diameter of narrowest parts and length of normal superior pubis were 11.52 mm (range, 11.13-11.91 mm) and 64.78 mm (range, 63.46-66.09 mm), while the diameter of narrowest part and length of normal inferior pubis were 7.37 mm (range, 7.20-7.54 mm) and 86.43 mm (range, 84.28-88.57 mm). Mean length and arc of intramedullary stem was 20 mm (range, 18-21 mm) and 2.7 rad. Mean screw holes number was 6.3 (range, 6-7) while ultimate screws number in surgeries was 4.3 (range, 4-5). Porous structure with 600-μm-pore size and 70% porosity was applied in parts of contact with residual bone. Conclusion 3D-printed customized prostheses could be a feasible option to reconstruct bone defect after type III resection. The design of 3D-printed customized prostheses is a multi-step process which is based on strict anatomic measurement.

Outcomes of internal hemipelvectomy for pelvic tumors: a developing country's prospective. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SURGERY-ONCOLOGY 2017; 2:e07. [PMID: 29238756 PMCID: PMC5708722 DOI: 10.1097/ij9.0000000000000007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Introduction Previously, external hemipelvectomy was the mainstay of treatment for pelvic tumors. However, with technological advancements, limb salvage procedures such as internal hemipelvectomy have emerged as a viable alternative. However, there is limited literature available on long-term outcomes and complications of internal hemipelvectomy, especially from developing countries. Therefore, the objective of this study was to share our experience of internal hemipelvectomy at a tertiary care center in a developing country. Materials and methods A retrospective review was conducted in which all 24 patients undergoing internal hemipelvectomy from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2015 at our institution were included. Medical record files were reviewed for intraoperative and early and late postoperative complications, and functional outcomes were assessed by contacting each patient on telephone. Results Ewing sarcoma was found to be the most common diagnosis, followed by osteosarcoma as the second most common. The mean follow-up period was 18.7±13.9 months. Intraoperatively there were 4 cases of iatrogenic neurovascular injury and 2 cases each of urinary tract injury and dural tear. Four patients developed early wound infections, 7 developed late wound infections, and 2 developed flap necrosis. Three patients developed recurrence, whereas 7 patients developed metastasis postoperatively. The mean survival was calculated to be 28 months and the mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score was 19.3±5.2. Conclusions Outcomes and prevalence of complications shown in this study are comparable to those in the international literature, which suggests that hemipelvectomy is a viable option in developing countries also. However, more such studies are warranted to validate the findings and to identify the challenges and morbidities associated with hemipelvectomy in Asian and developing countries.
