  • Title: [Reconstructive interventions on the hip joint for tumors of proximal part of the femur].
    Author: Dedkov AG.
    Journal: Klin Khir; 2010 Jan; (1):40-2. PubMed ID: 20469693.
    Abstract:
    In 41 patients with proximal femur tumors there were studied clinical results of performance of various reconstructive interventions on a hip joint. It was established, that the hip joint endoprosthesis using the cement two-polar total prosthesis had secured the lower extremity function restoration on the level of (84.6 +/- 2.2)%, in arthrodesis--the lower extremity function had restored up to (52.3 +/- 0.5)%. After endoprosthesis an early (in 30% of observations) and late (in 20%) complications had occurred, in arthrodesis the complications were absent.
