Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Oncology
  • Surgical Reconstruction
  • Bone Tumor Treatment

Background:

  • Intercalary resection is utilized for primary and metastatic bone tumors.
  • Numerous reconstruction methods exist, including grafts, prostheses, and scaffolds.
  • Tumor location, especially near growth plates, influences technique selection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review indications, limitations, and pitfalls of intercalary reconstruction techniques.
  • To provide orthopedic oncologists with knowledge of diverse reconstruction options.
  • To guide individualized treatment strategies for bone tumor patients.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic PubMed database search for intercalary reconstruction articles.
  • Cross-referencing to identify relevant studies missed by initial searches.
