Abstract

Benign and malignant bone tumors occur most commonly around the knee. The proximal tibia is the most technically demanding site for limb salvage surgery. The most difficult problem using an endoprothesis for proximal tibial resection has been reconstruction of the extensor mechanism. After excision of proximal tibia, we resected distal femur and made a composite with resected distal femur, low heat treated autogenous proximal tibia and endoprothesis. Patella was fixed into the resected down-loaded distal femur. This article shows the new technique and the results of reconstruction of extensor mechanism after prosthetic replacement of the proximal tibia.
