PY - 1999/1/1. Y1 - 1999/1/1. N2 - Patients with segmental bone and joint replacement prostheses because of tumors increasingly need revision surgery because of their long term survival. Between 1970 and 1990, 208 custom prosthetic replacements were performed for limb salvage in patients with tumors. Reoperations were required in 52 patients. The mean time to reoperation was 37 months. The reoperation procedures included 35 prosthetic revisions, 11 amputations, four arthrodeses, one vascularized fibular graft, and one open reduction and internal fixation of a fracture with supplemental bone graft. Functional assessment using the new Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scoring system was available for the 36 living patients, and their mean rating was 63% (18.9) at 12 years mean followup. Of the 35 patients who ...

Poor rehabilitation rates and the high-cost of managing postamputation patients justify an aggressive revascularization policy in critical lower limb ischemia. Endovascular therapy is our first choice for limb salvage in these patients. However there are patients for whom endovascular therapy is not feasible. When bypass is necessary, autologous vein is a superior conduit to synthetic material. However, varicosities usually contraindicate autologous vein bypass because of the risk of aneurysm formation, rupture and increased intimal hyperplasia compared with nonvaricose venous grafts. We report the use of varicosed long saphenous vein (LSV) with external Dacron support in infrainguinal bypass procedures for limb salvage, where endovascular therapy was not feasible. The external Dacron tube was not brought close to the distal anastomotic area itself. With a mean follow-up of 18 months, duplex ultrasonography and computed tomography angiography showed no evidence of stenosis of the reinforced vein ...

TY - CHAP. T1 - Limb salvage surgery for pelvic osteosarcoma. AU - Kunisada, Toshiyuki. AU - Takeda, Ken. AU - Fujiwara, Tomohiro. AU - Sugihara, Shinsuke. AU - Ozaki, Toshifumi. PY - 2016/1/1. Y1 - 2016/1/1. N2 - Patients with pelvic osteosarcoma have a poor outcome; treatment is one of the most challenging problems for the orthopedic oncologist. The reconstructive approach varies according to anatomic location, extent of resection, the patients functional demands, and individual surgeon preference. The choice of optimal technique for reconstruction after acetabular tumor resection depends on numerous parameters and includes iliofemoral arthrodesis or pseudoarthrodesis, combined use of hip arthroplasty with massive allograft or recycled autograft, and pelvic and saddle prosthesis. The type of reconstruction modality can influence the rate of infection. Hip transposition resulted in the least incidence of complications after resection of the acetabulum, compared to the use of prosthesis or ...

Abstract  As a large amount of blood loss is sometimes encountered in limb salvage procedures for pelvic tumours, it is essential to identify risk factors predicting the possibility of extensive haemorrhage. We retrospectively reviewed 137 patients who underwent pelvic tumour resections. Patients with an estimated blood loss greater than 3,000 ml were classified as having a large amount of blood loss. Sixty-one (44.53%) patients had blood loss greater than 3,000 ml. Tumours involving the acetabulum or sacrum, tumour volume greater than 400 cm3, aorta occlusion, resection method, reconstruction and operative time were all associated with a large amount of blood loss. Pelvic tumours involving the acetabulum or sacrum (odds ratio: 4.837), tumour volume greater than 400 cm3 (odds ratio: 3.005) and planned operation time of more than 200 min (odds ratio: 3.784) independently predicted a large amount of blood loss. Pelvic tumours with these characteristics were likely to have a large ...

Out of 609 titles total, 362 were unique, and 21 articles met inclusion criteria. A total of 341 (average age 67, range 37-94, 83% male) patients underwent venous arterialization. Seven studies described open deep vein arterialization (DVA) (127 patients), 6 studies described percutaneous DVA (43 patients), 5 studies described great saphenous vein arterialization (137 patients), and 1 study described hybrid DVA (25 patients). Technical success ranged from 78% to 100%, 30-day or intrahospital mortality ranged from 0-20%, 30-day or perioperative morbidity ranged from 0-37%. Pooled 30-day or postoperative major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was 5.6% (95% CI 1.1%-10.1%), below objective performance goal (OPG) of 10%. Overall pooled limb salvage was 69.3% (95%CI 51.4%-87.2%) over average 11-month follow-up. Pooled 1-year limb salvage rate was 73.9% (95%CI 67%-80.9%), slightly low than OPG of 81%. Two-year limb salvage rate was 59.% (95%CI 18.9%-100%).. ...

Bypass revascularization efforts to prevent amputation can fail, and many of them do so frequently in the first year. These failures can often be predicted preoperatively. Appropriate application of primary amputation based on data not only improves cost-effectiveness and patients quality of life, but improves our outcomes overall for critical limb ischemia (CLI).. A study out of Loma Linda University involving patients with CLI compared primary amputation vs. revascularization; 43% of patients had a primary amputation (Ann Vasc Surg. 2007;21:458-63). A multivariate analysis showed that patients with major tissue loss, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), diabetes and nonambulatory status were more likely to undergo primary amputation rather than revascularization.. While major tissue loss (Rutherford category 6) is certainly an indication for primary amputation, ambulatory status can represent a gray area in determining the best course. ESRD and diabetes are much more nonspecific factors; probably ...

Are there other options to consider when multiple providers have advised below-the-knee amputation for a patient? With an intriguing case study, this author illustrates how a concerted, multidisciplinary approach can still result in limb salvage despite complications and issues with patient non-adherence.

BACKGROUND: Isolated limb perfusion (ILP) with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and melphalan is highly effective in treating limb-threatening soft tissue sarcoma (STS) and other bulky tumors. Because of fear of TNF-associated toxicity, ILP with TNF is not offered to older patients in some cancer centers, although especially in older patients, every attempt to avoid an amputation that may end their independence must be considered. METHODS: Out of 306 TNF-based ILPs, 50 ILPs were performed for limb salvage in 43 patients ,75 years old (range, 75-91 years): 29 STS and 14 melanoma patients. RESULTS: In the STS patients, a response rate of 76% and a limb-salvage rate of 76% were achieved; in the melanoma patients, a 100% response rate and a 93% limb-salvage rate were achieved. Local toxicity was mild. The three postoperative deaths that occurred in the total series of 306 TNF-based ILPs in Rotterdam (,1%) occurred in patients ,75 years old after leakage-free perfusions and were not related to TNF but to ...

A reliable and effective technique in case of limb salvage surgery after resection of extensive bone tumors is represented by the implant of modular or custom-made megaprosthesis. Fixation of the residual surrounding soft tissue on the implant represent a challenge for the surgeon and the use of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) tube over it, also known as Trevira, is currently a common choice for reattachment with good clinical outcomes. We compared fibroblastic cell culture potential over simple titanium coating vs titanium surrounded by Trevira and evaluated cell viability and replication at 24, 48 and 72 h using MTT cell growth assay and scanning electron microscopy to determine if there was any difference in the potential of cell growth associated to the material used ...

The target population consists of patients suffering from critical limb ischemia (CLI) lasting more than 2 weeks. CLI is defined as rest pain or tissue loss (Fontaine stages III-IV or Rutherford classes 4 to 6) and/or ankle-brachial index , 0.40. Patient with acute limb-threatening ischemia, bone fractures in the relevant areas, nonatherosclerotic disease (e.g. arteriitis) and documented hypercoagulable diseases will be excluded from this study. There will be no experimental or control groups. The comparison groups will be:. Group 1: Best endovascular treatment (angioplasty +/- stent) Group 2: Best surgical treatment [bypass (vein or prosthetic)] Group 3: Femoral artery patchplasty +/- profundoplasty (+/- endovascular treatment) Group 4: Best conservative treatment.

PARITY is the first ever multi-centre, international, prospective randomized trial in the field of orthopaedic oncology. The trial will enroll 600 patients and compare the rates of deep infection in endoprosthetic reconstruction of the lower limb between two post-operative prophylactic antibiotic durations (24 hours and 5 days).. The risk for deep infection is at least 10 times higher in sarcoma reconstructive surgery than in non-cancer reconstructive surgery. Deep infection has devastating effects for patients, often resulting in limb amputation. The research question is based on longstanding uncertainty about the prophylactic antibiotic needs of patients undergoing limb salvage of the lower extremity with endoprosthetic reconstruction. A survey of orthopaedic oncologists determined that although the practice of antibiotic prophylaxis varies from surgeon to surgeon, there is overwhelming support for a randomized trial to answer this clinical question.. Hospitals from around the world are ...

Introduction: The use of potent chemotherapeutic drugs, better imaging modalities and improved surgical techniques has increased the life expectancy of patients with osteosarcoma to a great extend. The study was done to evaluate the spectrum of osteosarcoma, the various factors which affected the prognosis and to compare our results with set international standards.. Materials & Methods: 110 patients with osteosarcoma treated in our institute from 2001 - 2010 were included inthe study. The group included patients in the age group of 2 - 65 years and 62 of them were males. Long bone was affected in the majority of the cases with distal femur being the commonest site. 106 patients underwent limb salvage procedures as appropriate for the site of lesion. Data was analysed to find out if the various parameters had any influence on the outcome of the patient. Our results were then compared with the accepted international standards. Results, Conclusions: Proximally located lesions did have the same ...

In the setting of severe trauma, the decision whether to amputate or save a limb is common, and extremely difficult to make. Due to improving reconstructive surgical techniques there are currently no clear criteria for amputation. Although limb salvage appears desirable in most situations, numerous articles in the scientific literature have shown that it is associated with increased pain, complications, duration of hospital stay, rehabilitation time, and overall costs. These factors may be acceptable if the patients benefited from improved functional outcome. However, studies comparing amputation to limb salvage consistently report no significant difference in functional outcome between the two groups.. A major limitation in the methodology of the fore mentioned studies is the use of self-reported questionnaires to determine functional outcome. Questionnaires are subjective, and often lack specificity, and therefore may not be truly representative of functional outcome. Furthermore, lack of ...

By Andreas Tsavliris, President of the International Salvage Union. The legal framework which governs salvage is complicated and has evolved over the centuries. At the heart of that framework lies the 1989 Salvage Convention (the Convention). But the International Salvage Union, (ISU), which represents the interests of the global salvage industry, believes that some Articles in the Convention are outdated and no longer fit for purpose. In particular ISU considers the Convention should be modified to continue providing for the assessment of a financial Award for salvage services to maritime property, and, crucially, should also provide a financial Award for the degree of success a salvor achieves in preventing or minimising damage to the environment during salvage services.. The present system under the Convention, and the commercial arrangements of the most commonly-used salvage contract, Lloyds Form 2011 (and where applicable the Special Compensation P&I Club Clause - SCOPIC 2011) are not ...

Bauer Sumpio, MD, PhD, is a vascular surgeon who specializes in the care of patients with diseases of their arteries and veins. He engages in the limb salvage of people with diabetes who are at risk for losing their legs to their diabetic complications. He has decades of experience improving quality of life for patients with plaque build-up in major blood vessels which hinder flow to the critical organs, such as the kidneys, intestine (mesenteric ischemia), legs (claudication and critical limb ischemia) and brain (carotid artery disease). According to Dr. Sumpio, vascular surgery has become a much less invasive procedure in recent years. He gives credit to the development of endovascular therapeutic techniques, which allow doctors to treat problems from inside the affected blood vessel. Surgeons are able to operate through small punctures of an artery, using tiny, flexible tubes, called catheters, to access the blood vessels.

When a transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) is required, successful long-term limb salvage is questioned. We evaluated the influence of TMA on limb salvage in patients undergoing lower extremity revascularization. Patients who had distal bypasses extending to the infrapopliteal arterial tree and adjunctive TMA were retrospectively reviewed. Limb salvage was determined with life-table analysis. Twenty-four patients (29 limbs) were evaluated: 15 male and 9 female. Average age was 64.2 years old. Gangrene was the indication for bypass and TMA in 25 (86.2%) patients. Seven limbs were lost to follow-up. Nine of the remaining 22 limbs required below-knee (8) or above-knee (1) amputations, seven limbs within the first 3 months. In the group of patients who had major amputations within the first 3 months, graft thrombosis was the cause of leg amputation in six (85.7%) cases. No significant predictors of early major amputation were identified. Limb salvage was 62 per cent at 1 year in the TMA group. In ...

Patients with severe critical limb ischemia (CLI) due to long tibial artery occlusions are often poor candidates for surgical revascularization and frequently end up with a lower limb amputation. Subintimal angioplasty (SA) offers a minimally invasive alternative for limb salvage in this severely compromised patient population. The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of SA in patients with CLI caused by long tibial occlusions who have no surgical options for revascularization and are facing amputation. We retrospectively reviewed all consecutive patients with CLI due to long tibial occlusions who were scheduled for amputation because they had no surgical options for revascularization and who were treated by SA. A total of 26 procedures in 25 patients (14 males; mean age, 70 +/- A 15 [SD] years) were evaluated. Technical success rate was 88% (23/26). There were four complications, which were treated conservatively. Finally, in 10 of 26 limbs, no amputation was needed. A major ...

In lieu of the advancements in wound healing and innovations in surgical technique, limb salvage in the patient with diabetes remains a costly and complex endeavor. Some advocate immediate amputation for complex diabetic ulcers or gangrene.1 However, researchers have associated amputations in patients with diabetes with decreased life expectancy and an increased risk of contralateral amputation.2 The challenge with wound healing in patients with diabetes stems from the existence of comorbidities such as vasculopathy, neuropathy and propensity for infection.3

Nelson Bernardo, MD, medical director for Peripheral Vascular Intervention at MHVI and director for Peripheral Interventional Research Studies at MedStar Cardiovascular Research Network, is leading a feasibility study of an investigational revascularization technique called LimFlow™.. The LimFlow System is currently indicated as a treatment for patients with end-stage CLI who have no other revascularization option-and have failed either endovascular or surgical interventions, or even both. The procedure is based on a concept devised some time ago for use in the heart to bypass occluded coronary arteries, says Dr. Bernardo.. The LimFlow procedure entails the creation of a fistula from an artery in the leg to its accompanying vein. The latter carries the oxygenated blood flow into the critically ischemic foot via venous pedal arch acting as the arterial system. The vein is accessed distally at the level of the ankle while the artery is accessed at the groin area using the antegrade femoral ...

BACKGROUND: Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumour found in children and adolescents. Changed treatment protocols have resulted in improved survival and the opportunity for limb salvage surgery. Despite these advances, the outcome is mainly determined by the stage of disease at presentation, making early referral to a tumour unit essential. METHODS: Between July 2009 and October 2011, 25 consecutive patients were diagnosed with biopsy-confirmed osteosarcoma. Their records were reviewed and information extracted regarding clinical presentation, histological subtype and stage of disease. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Conventional osteosarcoma was the most common histological diagnosis encountered; 16 out of 24 (66.7%) patients had metastases at presentation; 6 of the ...

BACKGROUD: Diabetes is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic disease including peripheral artery disease (PAD). Diabetes is known to retard angiogenesis and wound repair possibly through p53-mediated tissue apoptosis. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) have been shown to enhance angiogenesis and recently demonstrated to modulate p53 degradation through MDM2, a ubiquitin ligase for p53 in non-diabetic models, however, the effects of statins on the diabetic PAD remains unclear. We examined the effects of statins on the impaired angiogenesis and wound repair using a PAD model of type 2 diabetic mice (KK/Ay).. METHODS AND RESULTS: Autoamputation was frequently observed in the ischemic limb of KK/Ay (16 out of 16, 100%). Ex vivo analyses (aortic ring assay and EPC culture assay) revealed that KK/Ay exhibited impaired angiogenesis (4.97±1.38% vs non-diabetic control, p,0.05) and decline in the endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) number (non-diabetic control: 434.6±13.6 cells/high power field ...

Orthopaedic Oncology is a precise speciality which deals with managing of Sarcomas, other bone and soft tissue tumours. Statistics on sarcomas in India are difficult to tabulate though it is said to account for 1-2% of all cancers in body. The rarity of this condition makes the treatment haphazard in various settings. The most common age is adolescence and the most common symptom to watch for is a non-mechanical night pain. Limb salvage surgery is one of the main key aspects of the management. All the cases handled in this speciality requires a multi-pronged approach. Only when its done as a multidisciplinary speciality, its worth treating these complex diseases. The long term results of sarcomas are one of the best if treated in right way at right time and the first time.. The lack of multidisciplinary settings in our country makes treatment of these diseases difficult. At HCG because of the multidisciplinary team [MDT] approach we are able to achieve results on par with the western standards ...

Are we saving lives by preventing major amputation? Does major amputation hasten death in patients with diabetes in comparison to limb salvage? Currently, it is evident that ulceration and amputation are associated with increased mortality. Five-year mortality following a first-time ulceration is approximately 40 percent in patients with diabetes and ranges from 52 to 80 percent after major amputation. more ...
