Abstract

|
Purpose:We analyzed the oncological and functional outcome of extended curettage for low-grade central chondrosarcoma
Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 16 patients with Grade I central chondrosarcomas treated with extended curettage and adjuvant therapy of chemical cauterization with H2O2 at a minimum follow up of 24 months
Results:Five-year disease free survival rate was 87 .5%. Mean follow up was 82.7 months and no patient developed metastases or died of disease. The mean final Musculoskeletal Tumor Society functional score was 27.5 (91 .6%)
Conclusion:Extended curettage is an effective treatment strategy for low-grade central chondrosarcoma with improved functional outcomes and lower complication rates compared to wide re section and reconstruction
