Bone tumors of the upper limb are a common cause of bone pain and pathological fractures in both old and young populations. Surgical reconstruction and limb salvage have become valid options for these patients despite this kind of surgery being challenging due to the need for wide bone resection and the involvement of surrounding soft tissues. Computer-assisted technology helps the surgeon in pre-operative planning and in designing customized implants. The aim of this study was to investigate the surgical outcomes and complications of custom-made prostheses in oncologic reconstruction of the upper limb and if they are reliable options for patients suffering from aggressive tumors. An electronic search on PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Knowledge was conducted to identify all available articles on the use of custom-made prostheses in oncological resections of the upper limb. Twenty-one studies were included in the review, comprising a total of 145 patients with a mean age of 33.68 years. The bone involved was the humerus in 93 patients, and the radius was involved in 36 patients. There were only six cases involving proximal ulna, three cases involving the scapula, and seven cases involving the elbow as well as soft tissues around it. The most frequent primary tumor was the giant cell tumor, with 36 cases, followed by osteosarcoma with 25 cases, Ewing Sarcoma with 17 cases, and Chondrosarcoma with 7 total cases. Forty patients were affected by bone metastases (such as renal cell cancer, breast cancer, melanoma, and rectal cancer) or hematologic diseases involving bone (lymphoma, myeloma, or non-Hodgkin disease). Custom-made prostheses are a viable option for patients who suffer from malignant tumors in their upper limbs. They are a reliable aid for surgeons in cases of extensive resections.

Intra-articular fractures of the distal humerus are complex injuries that often require surgery with the goal of restoring elbow range-of-motion and function. Open reduction and internal fixation has been the preferred surgical modality; however, restoration of the medial and/or lateral columns can be complicated in fractures involving a major loss of the articular surface and bony structure. Over the past decade, 3-dimensional (3D) printing has made significant advances in the field of orthopedic surgery, specifically in guiding surgeon preoperative planning. Recently, the incorporation of 3D-printing has proven to provide a safe and reliable construct for the restoration of anatomy in complex trauma cases. We present a 47-year-old woman who sustained a complex, intra-articular distal humerus fracture with associated shearing of the capitellum that went onto malunion. Patient was treated with a patient-specific 3D-printed custom elbow prosthesis with excellent outcomes. Our goal was to shed light on the use of 3D-printing technology as a viable salvage option in treating complex, intra-articular distal humeral fractures associated with lateral condylar damage that subsequently went onto malunion.
