Composite Reconstruction With Irradiated Autograft Plus Total Hip Replacement After Type II Pelvic Resections for Tumors Is Feasible but Fraught With Complications

CONCLUSION: Composite reconstruction with extracorporeal irradiated autografts plus total hip replacement is a feasible reconstruction technique after Type II pelvic resections, although complications and reoperations were common. Although no reconstruction technique has been proven superior to other alternatives, the high risk of complications and reoperations associated with this technique should be considered when selecting from among possible alternative reconstruction methods.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, therapeutic study.PMID:38666740 | DOI:10.1097/CORR.0000000000003097
