    This study explores partial humerus replacement using a metal-reinforced polyethylene implant. Six successful interpolations preserved shoulder and elbow function after significant humeral shaft resection, offering a preferred surgical option.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic surgery
    • Biomaterials science
    • Reconstructive surgery

    Context:

    • Extensive destruction of the humeral shaft poses significant reconstructive challenges.
    • Current methods for humeral shaft reconstruction have limitations.
    • Osteolysis necessitates innovative treatment strategies.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of partial humerus replacement using a novel implant.
    • To assess the functional outcomes of this reconstructive technique.
    • To compare this method with existing surgical options.

    Summary:

    • Twelve cases were reviewed, with six successful partial humerus replacements using a polyethylene implant centrally reinforced by metal.
    • Resections of up to 17 cm were achieved, maintaining shoulder and elbow joint function.

  • The longest follow-up exceeded two years, demonstrating sustained viability.

    • Impact:

    • This operative procedure presents a viable alternative for extensive humeral shaft defects.
    • It offers improved functional preservation compared to traditional methods.
    • It is particularly indicated for cases involving osteolysis.
