Introduction. The management of pelvic tumors is a challenge for orthopaedic oncologists due to the complex anatomy of the pelvis and the need to have extensive exposure. Various reconstructive techniques have been proposed with poor functional results and a high percentage of complications. Our purpose is to determine the functional results and the rate of complications of iliac stem prosthesis for acetabular defects following resections for periacetabular tumors.Materials and Methods. Between 1999 and 2012, 45 patients underwent pelvic resections for periacetabular bone tumors followed by reconstruction with stem cup prosthesis. The most common diagnosis was CS (chondrosarcoma, 29 cases), followed by OS (osteosarcoma, 9 cases) and metastasis (3 cases). In 33 cases, this implant was associated with massive bone allografts. Minimum follow-up required to evaluate functional outcome was 2 years. We classified pelvic resections according to Enneking and Dunham’s classification and we used MSTS (musculoskeletal tumor system) score to evaluate functional outcomes.Results and Discussion. Sixteen patients died of their disease, three were lost to follow-up, four are alive with disease, and twenty-two are alive with no evidence of disease. Fifteen patients had local recurrence. Sixteen patients had bone or lung metastasis. We have had 6 infections, 2 aseptic loosening, and 2 cases of hip dislocation. Iliac sovracetabular osteotomy was fused in all cases at 10 months from surgery. Functional results were good or excellent in 25 of 31 patients with long-term follow-up (77%), with a percentage similar to that reported in the literature.Conclusion. The use of iliac stem prosthesis is a simple reconstructive technique that reduces operative times and risk of infection. It allows having good results and low rate of complications, but it should be performed in selected cases and centres of reference.

Introduction: Periacetabular reconstruction after resection of primary bone tumour is a very demanding procedure. They are frequently associated with scarce functional results and a high rate of complications. We report a series of patients with periacetabular resections for primary bone tumours and reconstruction with a porous tantalum (PT) acetabular cup (AC). Materials and methods: 27 patients (median age 30 years) were included, being affected by primary bone tumours of the pelvis and treated with peri-acetabular resection and reconstruction with a PT AC. The diagnoses were 13 osteosarcomas, 7 chondrosarcomas and 7 Ewing sarcomas. Function was assessed with the Harris Hip Score and complications were classified according to Zeifang. Results: The median follow-up was 70 months. 1 patient required removal of the PT AC because of implant associated infection 55 months after surgery. There was 1 hip dislocation and no case of aseptic loosening. At final follow-up, the median HHS was 81 points (range 48–92). Conclusions: The used PT AC had good medium-term survival rates and good functional results. This technique is a viable reconstructive option after resections of periacetabular primary bone sarcomas.

The aim of this study was to verify the validity, feasibility, and the functional results, by uroflowmetry, of Tubularized proximallyincised plate technique in selected case of distal/midshaft hypospadias. Out of 120 patients scheduled to undergo TIP (or Snodgrass) procedure, 23 were selected between January 2013 and January 2016 (19.1%). This case series comprised 16 patients with distal and 7 with midshaft hypospadias. Mean age at surgery was 2.9 years. The inclusion criteria were a deep and wide glandular groove and a proximal narrow urethral plate. The procedure was carried out as described by Snodgrass but the incision of the urethral plate, including the mucosal and submucosal tissue, was made only proximally, between the original meatus and the glandular groove in no case extending to the entire length of the plate. Postoperatively a foley catheter was left in place from 4 to 7 days. Uroflowmetry was performed when the patients age ranged from 2.5 to 5.7 years (mean age 3.11 years and mean follow-up 1.8 years, body surface 2). No patient presented fistulas nor perioperative complications. At uroflowmetry, eighteen patients presented values above the 25<sup>th</sup> percentile and 5 showed a borderline flow. All patients in this group remained stable without urinary symptoms. In selected cases, the tubularized proximally-incised plate yields satisfactory cosmetic and functional results for the treatment of midshaft proximal hypospadias. A long-term follow-up study is needed for further evaluation. Patient selection is crucial for the success of this technique.

In CHD (Congenital Hip Dislocation), the elements which determine the degree and quality of acetabular growth are not clear. This has caused a great deal of controversy on the capability of development of the cotyloid cavity, hence on the indications to reconstructive surgical treatment. In order to study the behavior of che cotyloid cavity, two groups of patients were taken into consideration: normal subjects and subjects with CHD. In normal subjects the median value of the Hingelreiner angle was 19°–4'± 1° (normal limit), at 1 year old. The acetabular index decreases rapidly until becoming stable at adult values at the age of 8-10 years of age. The distinctive characteristics of the hip with spontaneous recovery from cotyloid dysplasia could be defined as follows: a) the higher critical value on average is reached after 24 months of treatment; b) once the borderline is reached, the dislocated hip evolves in the same way as the healthy hip; c) the earlier treatment is started, the sooner correction of the H angle is obtained; d) the cotyloid cavity continues to develop even after 5 years from reduction. In CHD with terminal residual dysplasia, an initial correction of the H angle is followed by a sudden interruption in acetabular development, which remains inadequate and will never reach normal values. These data allow not only the definition of the acetabular growth potential, but also the establishment of more precise indications for reconstructive surgical treatment.

Specialists from Children Orthopedic Clinic (CITO) and Institute of Medical Technology elaborated therapeutically active implants on the base of N-vinilpirrolidone and methylmethacrylate with different additives. Those implants were successfully applied in clinical practice. Experimental study on rabbits showed the possibility of implants to stimulate osteogenesis. Various types and shapes of implants were elaborated using different combinations of additives. Minimum invasive surgical intervention and indications to implants' application were worked out. From 1987 to 2001 one hundred thirteen patients with various pathology (obstetrical paresis, clubfoot, juvenile femur head ephiphysiolysis, congenital hip dislocation, funnel-shaped deformity of thorax, dystrophic varus deformity of femur head, osteochondropathy of lower limbs) were treated surgically using new implants. At 3-5 years follow up good and excellent anatomic and functional results were noted in 89% of cases.

Most common form of dental trauma in children are the fractures of crown mainly in anterior teeth. A case of complicated crown fracture treated with Cvek pulpotomy using MTA followed by fragment re-attachment with careful follow-up is presented here. Tooth fragment re-attachment provides feasible conservative alternative approach to restore esthetics and tooth function. Successful outcomes have been shown by the long term follow up of the treatment with the preservation of pulp vitality and continued development of root. Clinical results have also shown good esthetics and functional results of presented technique.

The diagnostic stability of AD is questionable since there are no specific diagnostic criteria and many clinicians are not familiar with AD, mistaking it for some overlapping disorder. Case-register and inpatient records all identify poor stability, although this was not unique to AD and includes other non-psychotic disorders. The duration of hospitalization is shorter for those with AD than for those with other diagnoses, and a similar pattern has been observed for outpatient follow up. The prognosis for AD is described as good. Long-term follow-up studies show that a large proportion of patients are well and do not require readmission. Among adolescents, a diagnosis of AD may augur more serious underlying psychopathology, and they have higher readmission rates than adults with the diagnosis. AD is the most common diagnosis in those dying by suicide in some countries and it occurs earlier in the course of AD than in other diagnostic groups.

Aims We analyzed the long-term outcomes of patients observed over ten years after resection en bloc and reconstruction with extracorporeal irradiated autografts Patients and Methods This retrospective study included 27 patients who underwent resection en bloc and reimplantation of an extracorporeal irradiated autograft. The mean patient age and follow-up period were 31.7 years (9 to 59) and 16.6 years (10.3 to 24.3), respectively. The most common diagnosis was osteosarcoma (n = 10), followed by chondrosarcoma (n = 6). The femur (n = 13) was the most frequently involved site, followed by the tibia (n = 7). There were inlay grafts in five patients, intercalary grafts in 15 patients, and osteoarticular grafts in seven patients. Functional outcome was evaluated with the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scoring system. Results There were no recurrences in the irradiated autograft and the autograft survived in 24 patients (88.9%). Major complications included nonunion (n = 9), subchondral bone collapse (n = 4), and deep infection (n = 4). Although 34 revision procedures were performed, 25 (73.5%) and four (11.8%) of these were performed less than five years and ten years after the initial surgery, respectively. The mean MSTS score at the last follow-up was 84.3% (33% to 100%). Conclusion Considering long-term outcomes, extracorporeal irradiated autograft is an effective method of reconstruction for malignant musculoskeletal tumours Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2019;101-B:1151–1159
