In 59 patients undergoing separation surgery for metastatic spinal cord compression, MRI-confirmed successful decompression at 2-3 weeks was linked to better motor recovery, ambulation, shorter hospital stay, and longer survival.
Can Orthopaedic Oncologists Agree on What Is and Is Not a Pathologic Fracture?
A survey of orthopaedic oncologists found only moderate-to-substantial agreement on whether imaging represented a pathologic fracture, with major disagreement in ambiguous cortical involvement cases, underscoring the need for a standardized definition.
In advanced NSCLC patients on chemo-immunotherapy, higher bone metastatic burden on imaging was the strongest independent predictor of worse overall survival compared to other metastatic sites.
Korean cohort study found lung cancer surgery survivors have significantly higher fracture risk (especially vertebral, within the first year) than matched controls, with risk varying by treatment modality, supporting osteoporosis screening in this population.eneficial.
Reconstruction of Internal Hemipelvectomy Defects After Oncologic Resection.
This review outlines reconstructive strategies—skeletal and soft-tissue—for the four types of internal hemipelvectomy defects following pelvic tumor resection.
This review details C-arm–guided percutaneous techniques for minimally invasive stabilization and local control of periacetabular osteolytic metastases, avoiding morbidity of open reconstruction.
Radiation Therapy for Primary and Metastatic Spine Tumors.
This review covers modern radiation therapy principles, techniques, and multidisciplinary management strategies for primary and metastatic spine tumors.
Pelvic bone tumor resection: post-operative imaging.
Reviews optimal post-operative imaging and expected findings after pelvic bone tumor resection, highlighting recognition of infection, recurrence, and reconstruction-related complications.
A literature review of 27 elbow TSGCT cases found open synovectomy effective for local and diffuse disease, with arthroscopic excision emerging as a promising option for diffuse tumors.
