| Abstract;Regarding 39 cases with the titled deseases during 1985-1999(2-15 years old; 20 males and 19 females), treatment, life prognosis, complications and residual disorders after treatment, and function evaluation are outlined. Those patients were diagnosed as osteosarcoma(28 cases), tumor of Ewing sarcoma family(7 cases), synovial sarcoma(2 cases), malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor(1 case), and epithelioid sarcoma(1 case). 38 cases with the exception of epithelioid sarcoma(1 case) received systemic chemotherapy. There were 22 cases treated with limb-preservation surgery, among which 15 cases received artificial joint replacement. 2 out of the 15 cases received amputation due to local recurrence(2 cases) and infection(2 cases). 22 cases were saved from amputation more than 3 years after limb-preservation surgery. 13 out of the 22 cases, having much difference in leg length, had residual disorders. The function after artificial joint replacement was evaluated to be 80% in all the cases, and the median was 63%. Regarding 27 cases with malignant bone tumor, being treated with limb-preservation surgery, the following were shown in table: surgical procedures and complications; background of cases with lower, superior limb-preservation and function evaluation. |
