Functional assessment of endoprosthesis in the treatment of bone tumors

Abstract: ObjectivesEvaluate the functional grade of these patients and to identify the types of complications found that influenced the average life span of endoprostheses the functions of the operated limb.MethodsWe analyzed 14 post-operative cases of endoprosthesis, patients with malignant bone tumors and aggressive benign bone tumors submitted to surgery between 2004 and 2014. The evaluation system used was proposed by Enneking, recommended by the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS), in addition to the radiologic e… Show more

“…After resection of major bone and soft tissues for a lower extremity sarcoma, the loss of sensory [58], motor [7], and proprioceptive [18] systems may disrupt physiological systems, delaying the transmission of sensory data to the central nervous system. Therefore, an appropriate timely response to activate postural muscle groups and maintain balance and posture may not be formulated [28][29][30].…”
