Limb preservation in the treatment of bone tumours
Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England
|January 1, 1983
Abstract:
The treatment of primary malignant tumours of bones by resection and prosthetic replacement is discussed in relation to more conventional treatment by amputation. Removal of the hemipelvis with preservation of the limb is suggested as an alternative for some patients who hitherto might have been regarded as only suitable for hindquarter amputation.
