“…There is a cohort of veterinary patients for which amputation is not an option, for example those with concurrent severe orthopaedic disease or neuropathy, or due to owner objections. Consequently, limb sparing surgery has been adopted in veterinary medicine, most commonly for osteosarcoma involving the distal radius (5). Techniques include cortical allografts, endoprostheses, pasteurized autograft, or vascularized ulna transposition (6)(7)(8).…”

Stump socket prostheses are feasible and versatile in animals. In correctly selected cases, good to excellent outcomes are possible. However, complications are frequent but often manageable. Further investigations are required into the risk factors for poor outcomes and prospective studies are required to assess changes in biomechanics, function, and QOL before and after fitting of a stump socket prosthesis. Until further evidence is available, careful consideration should be given before fitting bilateral thoracic limb stump socket prostheses or thoracic limb stump socket prostheses to small breed dogs.

“…The canine patient is alive and with no evidence of recurrent disease 24 months after initial diagnosis and 8 months after completion of personalized adjuvant therapy. The historical survival rate at 12 and 24 months post‐diagnosis are 33–65% and 16–28%, respectively . While recognizing the limitations of a single case study, this approach may be more broadly applicable and of significant clinical benefit.…”

“…As such, the current standard of care for primary proximal femoral and pelvic bone tumors in dogs has been external hemipelvectomy. 1,[16][17][18] Currently, limited information is published within the veterinary literature regarding internal hemipelvectomy. 8 If limb function can be retained without compromising surgical margins, a limb sparing procedure may be considered over an external hemipelvectomy.…”
