Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of various resection and reconstruction method on pain relief and function restoration for periacetabular metastatic destruction in different grade. Methods This study involved 20 patients, 11 males and 9 females, with the average age of 52 years(range, 43-82 years). The original tumor consisted of 5 renal cell carcinoma, 4 breast carcinoma, 3 lung carcinoma, 2 thyroid carcinoma, 1 prostate carcinoma, 1 rectum carcinoma and 4 unknown primary cancers. A solitary periacetabular metastatic lesion was demonstrated in 14 patients and multi-metastases were seen in 6 patients, and accompanying periacetabular pathologic fractures in 4 patients. As to the Harrington grading system for the periacetabular metastatic destruction, there were 8 grade Ⅰ, 5 grade Ⅱ, and 7 grade Ⅲ. And according to grade Ⅰ, curettage and cement packing (5 cases) as well as stability reconstruction in iliac and acetabulum (3 cases) were performed; grade Ⅱ, curettage, cement packing and total hip arthroplasty with reinforcement ring was performed; grade Ⅲ, en bolc resection of acetabular lesion and modular prosthesis reconstruction was performed. The average score was 5.4(ranged from 3 to 9) according to Tomita scoring system. The pain relief and functional recovery were investigated from the regular follow up postoperatively. Results All patients showed the improvement in pain relief and mobility postoperatively. No prosthetic dislocation, deep infection and leg length discrepancy occurred. The prosthesis or internal fixation loosening happened in 5 of 15 patients at different stage. The median survival time of all patients was 16.5 months (range from 4.2 to 63 months). 2 patients survived over 5 years, 3 over 2 years, 6 over 1 year, 6 over 6 months, and 3 less than 6 months. According to the Enneking functional scoring system, the patients were rated as excellent in 10 cases, good in 8, fair 1 and poor 1 at the 3rd month postoperatively, and for the 7 cases with grade Ⅲ, excellent 2, good 2, and poor 2. The functions of 11 patients survived one year after surgery were excellent in 3, good 4, fair 2 and poor 2. Conclusion The favorable resections and reconstructions for periacetabular metastatic destruction could lead to remarked improvement in pain relief, functional recovery and quality of life.
