Comparison of Pasteurized Autograft-Prosthesis Composite Reconstruction and Resection Hip Arthroplasty for Periacetabular Tumors.

CONCLUSIONS: RHA for periacetabular tumors can be an excellent alternative to anatomical reconstruction. It offers short surgical time, low complication rates, and functional results comparable to those of other reconstruction methods. However, this procedure is indicated for patients who can accept some limb shortening, and a tumor should be confined to the periacetabular area. PMID: 28861206 [PubMed - in process]
