Abstract
BACKGROUND There are a few good options for restoring bone defects in the hand and foot. 3D-printed implants have been used in the pelvis and elsewhere, but to our knowledge, they have not been evaluated in the hand and foot. The functional outcome, complications, and longevity of 3D-printed prostheses in small bones are not well known. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What are the functional outcomes of patients with hand or foot tumors who were treated with tumor resection and reconstruction with a 3D-printed custom prosthesis? (2) What complications are associated with using these prostheses? (3) What is the 5-year Kaplan-Meier cumulative incidence of implant breakage and reoperation? METHODS Between January 2017 and October 2020, we treated 276 patients who had tumors of the hands or feet. Of those, we considered as potentially eligible patients who might have extensive loss in their joint that could not be fixed with a bone graft, cement, or any prostheses available on the market. Based on this, 93 patients were eligible; a further 77 were excluded because they received nonoperative treatment such as chemoradiation, resection without reconstruction, reconstruction using other materials, or ray amputation; another three were lost before the minimum study follow-up of 2 years and two had incomplete datasets, leaving 11 for analysis in this retrospective study. There were seven women and four men. The median age was 29 years (range 11 to 71 years). There were five hand tumors and six tumors of the feet. Tumor types were giant cell tumor of bone (five), chondroblastoma (two), osteosarcoma (two), neuroendocrine tumor (one), and squamous cell carcinoma (one). Margin status after resection was ≥ 1 mm. All patients were followed for a minimum of 24 months. The median follow-up time was 47 months (range 25 to 67 months). Clinical data; function according to the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society, DASH, and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society scores; complications; and survivorship of implants were recorded during follow-up in the clinic, or patients with complete charts and recorded data were interviewed on the telephone by our research associates, orthopaedic oncology fellows, or the surgeons who performed the surgery. The cumulative incidence of implant breakage and reoperation was assessed using a Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS The median Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score was 28 of 30 (range 21 to 30). Seven of 11 patients experienced postoperative complications, primarily including hyperextension deformity and joint stiffness (three patients), joint subluxation (two), aseptic loosening (one), broken stem (one), and broken plate (one), but no infection or local recurrence occurred. Subluxations of the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints in two patients' hands were caused by the design of the prosthesis without a joint or stem. These prostheses were revised to a second-generation prosthesis with joint and stem, leading to improved dexterity. The cumulative incidence of implant breakage and reoperation in the Kaplan-Meier analysis was 35% (95% CI 6% to 69%) and 29% (95% CI 3% to 66%) at 5 years, respectively. CONCLUSION These preliminary findings suggest that 3D implants may be an option for reconstruction after resections that leave large bone and joint defects in the hand and foot. Although the functional results generally appeared to be good to excellent, complications and reoperations were frequent; thus, we believe this approach could be considered when patients have few or no alternatives other than amputation. Future studies will need to compare this approach to bone grafting or bone cementation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, therapeutic study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment refusal and abandonment (TxRA) are major barriers to improving outcomes among children with sarcomas of the extremities as curative treatment options bearing on amputation or disfiguring surgery, particularly in countries with limited resources. A multi-institutional retrospective study was conducted to determine the predictive factors for TxRA among patients with osteosarcoma associated with survival outcomes across Southeast Asia (SEA). METHODS Pediatric patients with osteosarcoma treated between January 1998 and December 2017 in four SEA pediatric oncology centers from three countries were studied. Nelson-Aalen estimates, Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox's proportion hazard model were applied to address the cumulative incidence, survival outcomes, and to identify prognostic factors associated with TxRA. RESULTS From a total of 208 patients with osteosarcoma enrolled; 18 (8.7%) patients refused and 41 (19.7%) patients abandoned treatment. Income classification of countries, age at diagnosis, tumor size, disease extent, chemotherapy protocols, and types of surgery were associated with TxRA. Tumor size more than 15 cm was an independent risk factor associated with TxRA. The 5-year overall and relapse-free survivals were 49.4% and 50.4%, respectively. However, these rates declined further to 37.9% and 35.8%, respectively, when TxRA were considered as events. Tumor size larger than 15 cm and metastatic disease were independent risk factors associated with TxRA-sensitive outcomes. CONCLUSION The prevalence of TxRA was high in SEA, particularly in lower middle-income countries. Factors associated with TxRA related to tumor burden. Treatment outcomes could be substantially improved by lowering the refusal and abandonment rates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Treatment of primary spinal infection includes medical management with or without surgical intervention. The objective of this study was to identify risk factors for the eventual need for surgery in patients with primary spinal infection on initial presentation. METHODS From January 2010 to July 2019, 275 patients presented with primary spinal infection. Demographic, infectious, imaging, laboratory, treatment, and outcome data were retrospectively reviewed and collected. Thirty-three patients were excluded due to insufficient follow-up (≤ 90 days) or death prior to surgery. RESULTS The mean age of the 242 patients was 58.8 ± 13.6 years. The majority of the patients were male (n = 130, 53.7%), White (n = 150, 62.0%), and never smokers (n = 132, 54.5%). Fifty-four patients (22.3%) were intravenous drug users. One hundred fifty-four patients (63.6%) ultimately required surgery while 88 (36.4%) never needed surgery during the duration of follow-up. There was no significant difference in age, gender, race, BMI, or comorbidities between the surgery and no-surgery groups. On univariate analysis, the presence of an epidural abscess (55.7% in the no-surgery group vs 82.5% in the surgery group, p < 0.0001), the median spinal levels involved (2 [interquartile range (IQR) 2-3] in the no-surgery group vs 3 [IQR 2-5] in the surgery group, p < 0.0001), and active bacteremia (20.5% in the no-surgery vs 35.1% in the surgery group, p = 0.02) were significantly different. The cultured organism and initial laboratory values (erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, creatinine, and albumin) were not significantly different between the groups. On multivariable analysis, the final model included epidural abscess, cervical or thoracic spine involvement, and number of involved levels. After adjusting for other variables, epidural abscess (odds ratio [OR] 3.04, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.64-5.63), cervical or thoracic spine involvement (OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.15-3.61), and increasing number of involved levels (OR 1.16, 95% CI 1.01-1.35) were associated with greater odds of surgery. Fifty-two surgical patients (33.8%) underwent decompression alone while 102 (66.2%) underwent decompression with fusion. Of those who underwent decompression alone, 2 (3.8%) of 52 required subsequent fusion due to kyphosis. No patient required hardware removal due to persistent infection. CONCLUSIONS At time of initial presentation of primary spinal infection, the presence of epidural abscess, cervical or thoracic spine involvement, as well as an increasing number of involved spinal levels were potential risk factors for the eventual need for surgery in this study. Additional studies are needed to assess for risk factors for surgery and antibiotic treatment failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total en bloc sacrectomy provides the best long-term local control for large primary bony sacral tumors, but often requires lumbosacral nerve root sacrifice leading to loss of ambulation and/or bowel, bladder, and/or sexual dysfunction. Nerve-sparing techniques may be an option for some patients that avoid these outcomes and accordingly improve postoperative quality of life. OBJECTIVE To describe the technique for a posterior-only en bloc hemisacrectomy with maximal nerve root preservation and to summarize the available literature. METHODS A 38-yr-old woman with a 7.7 × 5.4 × 4.5 cm biopsy-proven grade 2 chondrosarcoma involving the left L5-S2 posterior elements underwent a posterior-only left hemisacrectomy tri-rod L3-pelvis fusion. A systematic review of the English literature was also conducted to identify other descriptions of high sacrectomy with distal sacral nerve root preservation. RESULTS Computer-aided navigation facilitated an extracapsular resection that allowed preservation of the left-sided L5 and S3-Co roots. Negative margins were achieved and postoperatively the patient retained ambulation and good bowel/bladder function. Imaging at 9-mo follow-up showed no evidence of recurrence. The systematic review identified 4 prior publications describing 6 total patients who underwent nerve-sparing sacral resection. Enneking-appropriate resection was only obtained in 1 case though. CONCLUSION Here we describe a technique for distal sacral nerve root preservation during en bloc hemisacrectomy for a primary sacral tumor. Few prior descriptions exist, and the present technique may help to reduce the neurological morbidity of sacral tumor surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE En bloc resection of sacral tumors is the most effective treatment to help prevent recurrence. Sacrectomy, however, can be destabilizing, depending on the extent of resection. Various surgical techniques for improving stability and enabling early ambulation have been proposed. CLINICAL PRESENTATION Here, we report a case in which we use PMMA (poly[methyl methacrylate]) to augment pelvic instrumentation to improve mechanical stability after sacrectomy for en bloc resection of a solitary fibrous tumor. CONCLUSION We highlight the use of sacroplasty augmentation of pelvic ring reconstruction to provide biomechanical stability without the need for fusion of any mobile spine segments, which allowed for early patient ambulation and no appreciable loss of range of motion or mobility.
