. Comparison: to compare the functional and oncological results obtained after surgical treatment of distal femur and/or proximal tibia GCTs. Outcomes: local recurrence of the disease; ROM; infection; need for surgical revision; metastatic disease

surgical techniques allows demanding reconstructions ( 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ). With the use of CAS and custom 3D-printed reconstructions, satisfactory results in terms of functional and oncological outcomes have been also reported in recent series of

. Additionally, this was a single-centre retrospective observational study with a low mean follow-up time (25 months) without a report on functional outcomes. 19 Complications directly related to surgery Jabalameli et al observed no infections or

possible in many cases, leading to a steady decrease in the rate of amputations. 1 , 2 Long-term results of tumour endoprostheses are important to evaluate functional outcome for patients, possible complications and implant survival. The main

cephalointramedullary nail. Is it a unique metastasis? What is the primary tumor? What are the failure rates specific to an implant used in a particular region? What is the functional outcome? Regarding impending fractures, the

-term survivors of extremity sarcomas is very high, up to 80% in some reports, and the functional outcomes are still limited. 14 Although the complication rates for the modular megaprostheses reconstructions are consistently greater compared with regular

Function It might be expected that with wide re-excision, patients with IE may end up with worse functional outcomes than those undergoing primary excision. Morii et al investigated this and found no difference in functional outcomes, probably because

functional outcome and sometimes it is challenging to achieve ‘safe’ oncological margins. Benign lesions are more common than malignant ones. They usually affect the proximal ulna and radius. 2 The commonest benign tumours around the elbow joint are

, imaging and histological characteristics. The advantage of intralesional curettage is that the functional results are superior to cases treated with resection. Cartilage lesions in the pelvis and sacrum can frequently recur after intralesional excision
