ABSTRACT
Objective To study the operation methods and efficacy of joint prosthesis with artificial diaphysis for the treatment of tumors at the end of bone. Methods 28 patients with tumors at the end of bone had resection and limb salvage by joint prosthesis with artificial diaphysis. These cases consisted of 11 osteosarcomas, 10 bone giant cell tumors, 2 chondrosarcomas, 2 metastatic carcinomas, 1 malignant fibrous histiocytoma,1 aneurysmal bone cyst and 1 osteochondroma. Among them, there were 7 cases of proximal femoral tumors, 6 cases of distal femoral tumors, 10 cases of proximal tibial tumors, 5 cases of proximal humeral tumors. Results The follow-up periods were 16 months to 15 years. Eighteen patients died. Functional activity was satisfactory in 71% of the patients(2 years). Conclusions Joint prosthesis with artificial diaphysis for the treatment of tumors at the end of bone is feasible, and a better system for reattachment of the soft tissues is needed to avoid pain and a persistent limp.
