Abstract
- <bold>Purpose: </bold>The aim of this study was to evaluate the early clinical outcome of reconstruction with modular hemipelvic prostheses after pelvic sarcoma resection.<bold>Methods: </bold>We retrospectively reviewed eight patients between 2004 and 2007 who had periacetabular resections and reconstruction with a modular hemipelvic prosthetic system for pelvic sarcoma with a mean follow-up of 27 (range,10~54) months. Oncology outcome was assessed with survival rate, local recurrence rate, International Society of Limb Salvage (ISOLS) score and complications. Two patients had types I and II (periacetabular and ilium) pelvic resections, three had types II and III (periacetabular and pubis) pelvic resections and three had type I , II and III (ilium, periacetabular and pubis) pelvic resections. Nobody received chemotherapy or radiotherapy.<bold>Results: </bold>Five patients were free of disease; three patients died of disease. The overall survival rate was 62.5%. None had local recurrence, and 37.5% had metastasis. The mean ISOLS score was 19.5. No one had deep infection or dislocation.<bold>Conclusions: </bold>Reconstruction with a modular hemipelvic prosthetic system after periacetabular resection is a promising method because of the acceptable complication rate and satisfactory functional outcome.
