Long-term results of uncemented allograft prosthesis composite reconstruction for the tumor in proximal femur: a minimum follow-up of sixty-five months.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Uncemented allograft prosthesis composite (APC) has been applied for tumorous bone defect reconstruction in the proximal femur. However, the long-term results are rarely reported. This study aimed to evaluate long-term outcomes of uncemented APC.

Methods

Eighteen patients who received uncemented APC reconstruction in the proximal femur after tumor resections were retrospectively reviewed.

Results

The average resection length was 110 mm (80-154) and the average follow-up was 106.7 months (65-141). Bone union achieved in all patients with an average duration of 7.6 months (5-10). The average HHS, MSTS score and gluteus medius strength at one-year follow-up were 88.0 (80-94), 25.2 (22-28) and 4 (3-5), respectively. While at the last follow-up, the HHS, MSTS sc
