“…It also has high failure rates for reasons such as fracture, nonunion, and infection. The lengthening technique with bone transport using the Ilizarov apparatus is often insufficient for adequate lengthening and is associated with important problems such as pin site infection [1,[4][5][6]. Another technique that has become increasingly popular in massive intercalary defects in recent years is the Masquelet technique.…”

A 24-year-old female patient was referred to our hospital with the diagnosis of Ewing's sarcoma localized in the left distal tibia. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was completed for the patient who had localized disease. Enbloc resection of the tumor segment in the diaphyseal tibia, intraoperative extracorporeal radiotherapy, and then re-implantation of the segment after clearing the tumor were performed. Transfer of the ipsilateral pedicled fibula to the medulla of the irradiated segment was performed. As far as we know, the simultaneous application of extracorporeal radiotherapy and the re-implantation method after resection of the tibial tumoral segment and the transfer of the ipsilateral fibula with its pedicle has not been previously reported in the literature. In this case, this new technique was accompanied by a satisfactory result.

BACKGROUND Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a critical complication after joint arthroplasty and is accompanied by increasing rates of morbidity and mortality. Several studies have aimed at preventing PJI. AIM To research the knowledge level and attitudes of orthopedic surgeons, who play a key role in both preventing and managing PJI. METHODS We conducted a web-based survey to evaluate orthopedic surgeons' knowledge level and attitudes regarding PJI. The Likert scale survey utilized consisted of 30 questions which were prepared based on the "Proceedings of the International Consensus on Periprosthetic Joint Infection". RESULTS A total of 264 surgeons participated in the survey. Their average age was 44.8, and 173 participants (65.5%) had more than 10 years of experience. No statistically significant relationship was found between the PJI knowledge of the surgeons and their years of experience. However, participants who worked in training and research hospitals demonstrated higher levels of knowledge than the ones in the state hospitals. It was also noticed that surgeons' knowledge concerning the duration of antibiotic therapy and urinary infections was not consistent with their attitudes. CONCLUSION Even though orthopedic surgeons have adequate knowledge about preventing and managing PJI, their attitudes might contradict their knowledge. Future studies are required to examine the causes and solutions of the contradictions between orthopedic surgeons' knowledge and attitudes.

“…The lesions with a painful course, pathologic risk of fracture in load-bearing bones, and those producing non-acceptable dysfunction and deformity require further treatment [4,7,8,18]. Today, follow-up and treatment of benign tumoral lesions can be made in many orthopedics clinics in Turkey [19,20]. Since our clinic is a tertiary orthopedic oncologic clinic, the majority of our patients were those referred from outer centers with the presumed diagnosis of malignant bone tumors and had aggressive MRI or painful manifestation.…”

Aim: Given the benign biology, and clinical course of eosinophilic granuloma and its higher incidence in pediatric patient group, a successful treatment plan with lower risk for complications is desired. In this study, we aimed to evaluate clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcomes of patients diagnosed with eosinophilic granuloma localized in the pelvis and extremities. Material and Method: Clinical findings, treatment methods, clinical outcomes and treatment failures were evaluated in a total of 19 patients (6 males, 13 females, mean age: 16.5 years, range: 1-37 years) diagnosed with eosinophilic granuloma localized in the pelvis and extremities between 2002 and 2016. Results: The most common mass localization was acetabulum (15%, n = 3). The mean tumor size was 3,7 cm (range: 1-8 cm). All patients presented with pain and had primary tumor. All patients in the study had solitary bone lesion. The mean duration of postoperative follow-up was 46 months (range: 24-95 months). Three patients underwent biopsy alone, and followed-up with adjuvant therapies. In 14 patients, curettage of the lesion was performed at single session during biopsy, and grafting was applied in six of these patients. Two patients underwent excision of the lesion. None of the patients developed recurrence, while a new lesion was detected in the cervical vertebra in one patient after treatment of acetabulum localized lesion. Discussion: The management of eosinophilic granuloma localized in the pelvis and extremities takes place in a wide spectrum varying from observation alone, to lesion curettage, chemotherapy and radiotherapy applications, and prophylactic administration, and treatment tailored for each patient should be planned with a multidisciplinary approach.
