Background:
This study aimed to determine the prognostic outcome of hip joint replacement after resection of proximal femoral tumors by reviewing original studies.
Methods:
Two researchers independently searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases from inception to July 17, 2022. Then, the literature was screened by inclusion criteria. The basic information, primary outcomes, and secondary outcomes were extracted for weighted combined analysis. The quality of the included literature was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale.
Results:
Twenty-four retrospective cohort studies comprising 2081 patients were included. The limb salvage rate was 98%. The survival rates at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years were 80, 72, 65, 64, and 55% for patients with primary tumors and the rate at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years were 44, 25, 17, 14, and 11% for patients with bone metastases, respectively.
Conclusion:
As chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment progressed, joint reconstruction after proximal femoral tumor resection improved patients' function and quality of life.
