Rotationplasty type BIIIb as an effective alternative to limb salvage procedure in adults: Two case reports.

Background: Rotationplasty is often performed for malignant tumors, but type BIIIb rotationplasty is rarely reported, and there needs to be more evidence of the procedure and treatment. The purpose of this case study was to report a new direction in the use of type BIIIb rotationplasty in treating patients with limb salvage and long-term non-healing infections.

Case Summary: Case 1: A 47-year-old man underwent radiotherapy for hemangioendothelioma in his left thigh, resulting in a femoral fracture.
