Abstract:
Objective:Limb salvage treatment for osteosarcoma in the distal tibiais challenging and the incidence of postoperative complications is high. To prove that the use of autologous bone inactivation to replant the ankle joint has a satisfactory clinical effect.Methods:This study retrospectively studied 6 cases (4 males and 2 females) of the osteosarcoma of the distal tibia from June 2018 to April 2019 in our center. The average case age was 16.8 years. All cases were first diagnosed in the center, and classic osteosarcoma was confirmed by biopsy. Before the operation, he received 4 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The tumor was resected under general anesthesia, and the tumor bone was inactivated and replanted for internal fixation and reconstruction. During the operation, the tumor segment was completely removed, and after a series of treatments, it was immersed in hypertonic saline at 65 °C for 45 min. After removal, the bone defect was filled with bone cement, and internal fixation materials such as plate screws and anchors were placed. Finally, soft tissue was rebuilt after the inactivated bone internal fixation complex (autograft-fixation composite, AFC) was replanted. Patients were treated with plaster for 3 months after surgery. Chemotherapy continued 2 weeks after surgery. Follow-up X-ray of the lower tibia were taken at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after the operation to evaluate the MSTS score and ankle function score (AOFAS) to evaluate the ankle function.Results:The patients were followed up for an average of 20 months. At 12 months after operation, no complications such as deep infection, mechanical failure of internal fixation, or local tumor recurrence occurred. The MSTS score averaged 26.7±2.6 points. The AOFAS average was 82.3±8.5 points. The VAS average is 2.7 points. Boneunionwasobserved in 5 cases during follow-up. All cases were satisfied with the treatment results.Conclusion:Limb salvage treatment of distal tibia osteosarcoma is more difficult. This study proves that the use of tumor bone inactivation and internal fixation to reconstruct the ankle joint can not only cure the tumor, but also has satisfactory limb function. It is an ideal strategy for limb salvage reconstruction.
