Abstract
Periprosthetic infection and mechanical loosening are two leading causes of implant failure in orthopedic surgery that have devastating consequences for patients both physically and financially. Hence, advanced prostheses to simultaneously prevent periprosthetic infection and promote osseointegration are highly desired to achieve long-term success in orthopedics. In this study, we proposed a multifunctional three-dimensional printed porous titanium alloy prosthesis coated with imidazolium ionic liquid. The imidazolium ionic liquid coating exhibited excellent bacterial recruitment property and near-infrared (NIR) triggered photothermal bactericidal activity, enabling the prosthesis to effectively trap bacteria in its vicinity and kill them remotely via tissue-penetrating NIR irradiation. In vivo anti-infection and osseointegration investigations in infected animal models confirmed that our antibacterial prosthesis could provide long-term and sustainable prevention against periprosthetic infection, while promoting osseointegration simultaneously. It is expected to accelerate the development of next-generation prostheses and improve patient outcomes after prosthesis implantation.

Surgical Outcomes and Complications of Custom-Made Prostheses in Upper Limb Oncological Reconstruction: A Systematic Review. J Funct Morphol Kinesiol 2024; 9:72. [PMID: 38651430 PMCID: PMC11036263 DOI: 10.3390/jfmk9020072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Bone tumors of the upper limb are a common cause of bone pain and pathological fractures in both old and young populations. Surgical reconstruction and limb salvage have become valid options for these patients despite this kind of surgery being challenging due to the need for wide bone resection and the involvement of surrounding soft tissues. Computer-assisted technology helps the surgeon in pre-operative planning and in designing customized implants. The aim of this study was to investigate the surgical outcomes and complications of custom-made prostheses in oncologic reconstruction of the upper limb and if they are reliable options for patients suffering from aggressive tumors. An electronic search on PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Knowledge was conducted to identify all available articles on the use of custom-made prostheses in oncological resections of the upper limb. Twenty-one studies were included in the review, comprising a total of 145 patients with a mean age of 33.68 years. The bone involved was the humerus in 93 patients, and the radius was involved in 36 patients. There were only six cases involving proximal ulna, three cases involving the scapula, and seven cases involving the elbow as well as soft tissues around it. The most frequent primary tumor was the giant cell tumor, with 36 cases, followed by osteosarcoma with 25 cases, Ewing Sarcoma with 17 cases, and Chondrosarcoma with 7 total cases. Forty patients were affected by bone metastases (such as renal cell cancer, breast cancer, melanoma, and rectal cancer) or hematologic diseases involving bone (lymphoma, myeloma, or non-Hodgkin disease). Custom-made prostheses are a viable option for patients who suffer from malignant tumors in their upper limbs. They are a reliable aid for surgeons in cases of extensive resections.

Biological Prosthesis (Hollow 3D-Printed Titanium Custom-Made Prosthesis and Bone Graft) for Humeral Reconstruction in Pediatric Oncologic Patients: Surgical Indications and Results. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:1371. [PMID: 38135962 PMCID: PMC10741201 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10121371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
This study presents the mid-term outcomes of a novel "biological prosthesis" for pediatric humerus reconstruction after major bone tumor removal. This approach involves a hollow 3D-printed titanium custom-made prosthesis combined with bone grafting. The primary aim was to preserve and revitalize the unaffected autologous proximal or distal humeral stump. Between 2017 and 2021, we treated five pediatric patients (mean age 11.2 years; range 7-17) with humeral bone sarcomas. A one-stage surgical procedure involved tumor resection and implanting a hollow 3D-printed custom-made prosthesis. In two cases, we preserved the proximal humerus; in two, the distal part; and in one, both. Graft materials included homologous bone chips in three cases and free vascularized fibular grafts in two cases. All patients were clinically and radiographically assessed after a mean follow-up of 32.2 months (range of 14-68). No significant complications were observed, and no implant revisions were needed. Osseointegration was evident in all cases within eight months post-surgery; vascular support for the remaining autologous stump was demonstrated in all cases. Our hollow 3D-printed custom-made prosthesis and bone grafting offer the potential for partial or complete articular surface preservation. This approach encourages revascularization of the epiphysis, leading to satisfactory outcomes in humerus reconstruction within the pediatric population.
