Περίληψη:
Resection of large femoral triangle tumors that invade the bone (or vice
versa) still remains a challenge. A lateral-only approach would hinder
dissection of the mass, away from the femoral vessels, while an
iliofemoral-only type of approach would make bone resection and
megaprosthetic reconstruction very arduous. The authors describe a
two-stage, one-position operation via a double surgical approach: the
first stage is comprised by an iliofemoral approach and dissection of
the femoral vessels, followed by proximal femoral resection and
reconstruction stage. One illustrative case is presented along with the
authors overall experience. We believe that this operation facilitates
wide tumor resection in a safe and step-wise manner, as not to add to
the morbidity of the procedure. J. Surg. Oncol. 2013;107:673679. (c)
