Case ReportsThe Use of a Custom-made Prosthesis in the Treatment of Chondrosarcoma of Distal Radius.
The most common neoplasms of the distal radius are primary tumors, of which aneurysmal bone cysts and giant cell tumors are seen almost exclusively. Chondrosarcomas are most commonly located in the pelvis, ribs and proximal segments of the extremities; they rarely occur in forearm bones. Bone defects after distal radial resection can be replaced with bone grafts, both autogenous and allogenic. ⋯ Custom-made prostheses appear to be a good solution. This method makes it possible to restore the anatomy of bones and joint surfaces and to achieve good limb function and mobility and the incidence of complications, as described in the literature, is low. Large meta-analyses on the use of custom-made prostheses are still lacking.
