  • Title: [The treatment of diaphyso-epiphyseal tumours by local resection with the preservation of joint movement. A report of four cases (author's transl)].
    Author: Roy-Camille R, Catonne Y, Saillant G, Berteaux D, Martin P.
    Journal: Rev Chir Orthop Reparatrice Appar Mot; 1978; 64(5):391-8. PubMed ID: 152947.
    Abstract:
    Four cases of epiphyseal tumours were treated by the authors by local resection. In two cases, there was a giant-cell tumour of the lower end of the femur, in one case a giant-cell tumour of the lower end of the radius and in one case a juxta-cortical sarcoma of the lower end of the radius. In the two cases involving the knees, resection preserved the articular surface and the subchondral bone. Reconstruction was achieved by a cortical autograft. In all cases, painless joint movement was preserved with satisfactory muscle power.
