Abstract
|
|
|
|
As survival rate of patients in osteosarcoma improves, both patients and surgeons are increasingly interested in long-term functional outcome. For resection and reconstruction of tumors on either side of knee joint, if feasible, conservation of normal joint apparatus seems preferable method over use of tumor prosthesis. However, we should not trade off the sound surgical margin with expected functional gain. We report one case of osteosarcoma who was treated by wide, intercalary resection and reconstruction with autogenous pasteurized bone but, showed local recurrence at 44 months postoperatively.
