Outcome of Endoprosthetic Hip Reconstruction Following Resection of Malignant Bone Tumors
In summary, this study shows declining tumor arthroplasty-related complications and satisfying functional outcomes as well as QoL. Noteworthy aspects include the relatively low rates of amputation and local tumor recurrences, which significantly favor the selection of appropriate therapeutic options. Moreover, the findings underscore the substantial impact of patients' age on overall functionality and engagement in daily activities.
