Does Osteoarticular Allograft Reconstruction Achieve Long-term Survivorship after En Bloc Resection of Grade 3 Giant Cell Tumor of Bone?

Background: En bloc resection of benign tumors is only indicated in aggressive lesions with substantial destruction of the affected bone. Few reports have evaluated the long-term outcome of Grade 3 giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB; defined as severe bone destruction and soft tissue extension) treated with en bloc resection and reconstruction with a massive allograft. We recently reported that patients with benign tumors achieved better allograft reconstruction survivorship compared with those treated for a malignant bone tumor.

Modular prosthesis reconstruction after tumour resection, evaluation of failures and survival.

Objective: To analyze a series of patients with bone tumours reconstructed with modular prostheses and to evaluate: 1) Survival of the implant. 2) Causes of failure. 3) Complication rates.
