  • Title: Using polypropylene mesh graft for soft-tissue reconstruction in internal hemipelvectomy: a case report.
    Author: Asavamongkolkul A, Waikakul S.
    Journal: World J Surg Oncol; 2012 Jun 28; 10():124. PubMed ID: 22742759.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a patient with chondrosarcoma involving the right pelvis and contralateral pubic area in a 45-year-old male who underwent an extensive internal hemipelvectomy without bony reconstruction. We demonstrate the technique of using polypropylene mesh graft for soft-tissue reconstruction. Follow-up at 7.5 years showed a good oncological and functional outcome.
