Case:
A 29-year-old man was admitted with acute atraumatic left hip pain and inability to bear weight. Subsequent workup revealed an intracapsular pathologic fracture of the femoral neck secondary to a high-grade spindle cell sarcoma. A unique method of extra-articular resection and reconstruction using a 3-dimensional (3D)-printed custom cutting jig and a custom acetabular component was pursued. Wide margins were achieved without violating the joint capsule but preserving pelvic integrity, allowing a return to an active lifestyle.
Conclusion:
Three-dimensional-printed custom resection guides and implants can help achieve adequate resection margins while preserving pelvic integrity and function.
