“…According to Pesenti et al, there was no difference in gait pattern between the groups, albeit in the megaprosthesis group, a decreased knee flexion during the load and stance phase was observed. 32 Moreover, the Gait Deviation Index (GDI), was significantly lower in both groups as compared to a control group. 32 Therefore, sparing of the epiphysis may not significantly increase the functional outcome in patients with tumours around the knee joint.…”

“…These advancements in bone tumor management have given both surgeons and patients more options for treatment, other than mere limb ablation. Currently, 90–95% of patients with sarcoma of the extremities that were administered in tertiary referral centre can undergo musculoskeletal LSS with a successful result [[5], [6], [7], [8], [9]].…”

“…Previous studies have found good knee range of motion and function after joint preservation [30,31], and to further explore the knee function status after JPLS, our study also added the IKDC score to evaluate the postoperative joint function and movement. The IKDC score provides a comprehensive evaluation of the subjective symptoms and objective signs of the knee system and applies to various knee conditions.…”
