Introduction And Importance: Introduction and importance: Bone tumors of the foot constitute 3 % of all bone tumors, within these, the location in the talus constitutes between 8 and 23 % of bone tumors. Within the oncological management of these lesions, preservation surgery has had a great boom in the last 10 years, however, the use of massive structural allograft is not a conventional surgery and there is little literature on its use, which is why we consider important to document clinical cases.
Case Presentation: we document 2 clinical cases of bone tumor in the talus that were surgically managed with tumor resection plus reconstruction with total and partial talus allograft.
Introduction And Importance: Ewing sarcoma is a primary malignant tumor of bone and, to a lesser extent, soft tissues. Within oncological management, surgery with extensive local control and reconstruction is the most accepted option, however, the size, extension of the tumor, the age of the patient and distant involvement can make this option difficult.
Case Presentation: We present a clinical case of a 3-year-old infant with Ewing sarcoma in the proximal femur, who was managed with wide resection of the tumor plus proximal humerus allograft, which acted as a proximal femur for 2 years and then presented joint failure due to what was done was the application of a cemented stem over the remnant of the allograft to save the hip.
Background: High-grade osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. This study aimed to evaluate the histologic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and overall and event-free survival rates in patients < 21 years of age with a diagnosis of conventional osteosarcoma.
Methods: We conducted an analytical and observational study of a cohort of patients < 21 years old with a diagnosis of conventional osteosarcoma treated with the OS INC-2009 protocol (based on EURAMOS-1).
