Endoprosthesis

Endoprosthetic reconstruction is a widely used limb-salvage technique after bone tumor resection. It provides structural and functional restoration, especially in the femur and humerus.

Main Content:
Endoprostheses are custom or modular implants used to replace resected bone and adjacent joints after oncologic resections. They allow for immediate weight-bearing and have become the standard of care in selected patients with good soft tissue coverage and expected long-term survival. Complications include infection, loosening, and mechanical failure.
