Outcome of bone recycling using liquid nitrogen as bone reconstruction procedure in malignant and recurrent benign aggressive bone tumour of distal tibia: A report of four cases

Abstract: Amputation still considered as primary choice of malignancy treatment in distal tibia. Bone recycling with liquid nitrogen for reconstruction following resection of malignant bone tumours offers many advantages. We presented four patients with osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, adamantinoma and recurrent giant cell tumour over distal tibia. All of the patients underwent wide excision and bone recycling using liquid nitrogen as bone reconstruction. The mean functional Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was 75… Show more

“…Ten studies [3[6], [15], [18], [19], [30], [32], [34]] of allograft reconstruction and 17 studies [[2], [4], [6], [11][17], [23], [26], [28], [30], [31], [33], [35]] of autograft reconstruction were included for comparative analysis. Among the 16 studies (165 cases), five [15[17], [28], [33]] including 82 cases documented the use of recycled tumor-bearing bone. The mean followup durations were 68.5 (range, 8–288) and 67.5 (range, 6–288) months, respectively ( P = .899).…”

“…Is it necessary to perform ankle arthrodesis? In this systematic review, twenty-one studies [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [11], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [19], [20], [21], [23], [25], [26], [30], [33], [34], [35] including 142 cases of ankle arthrodesis and six studies [3], [4], [15], [18], [28], [31], [32], [34] including 111 cases of ankle joint preservation were included for comparative analysis. Most researchers hold the notion that arthrodesis was the best way to provide excellent ankle stability, and the final functional outcome further confirmed this theory.…”

“…Liquid nitrogen can damage the osmolarity of cells by forming ice crystals which trigger apoptosis [11]. According to research by [12], bone recycling with liquid nitrogen for reconstruction after resection of malignant bone tumors offers many advantages. Of the 4 cases of bone recycling with liquid nitrogen, the average Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) functional score was 75% without infection and local recurrence.…”

“…24 In the past few decades, limb salvage surgery has evolved, 5,25 and good limb function has been reported after remodeling using both tumor-type joint replacement and liquid nitrogen treatment of the bone (95% MSTS score: ⩾good). 5,26,27 With tumor-type arthroplasty, revision surgery is usually needed for a long-term follow-up, especially if the patient is a child. 28 In this study, none of the patients who underwent arthroplasty required revision surgery.…”
