Title: Reconstruction With β-Tricalcium Phosphate After Navicular Tumor Resection. Author: Sakamoto A. Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2017; 56(1):98-102. PubMed ID: 27839663. Abstract: Postresection reconstruction of the navicular bone is challenging. A composite hemangioendothelioma is an intermediate malignancy characterized by an admixture of differing vascular components. In the present report, a 40-year-old male with a composite hemangioendothelioma presented with multiple soft tissue lesions of the leg and sole and a navicular bone lesion. The navicular bone was resected and reconstructed using β-tricalcium phosphate of strong compression resistance with plating. The current reconstruction method can be applied, not only for tumors, but also for trauma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
