Abstract EN
A 23-year-old female with Ewing's Sarcoma underwent tibial resection and skeletal reconstruction using proximal tibial allograft prosthetic reconstruction with distal femur endoprosthetic reconstruction and rotating hinge.
Human acellular dermal matrix, (Alloderm, LifeCell, Branchburg, NJ, USA), was used to wrap the skeletal reconstruction.
Soft tissue reconstruction was completed with a rotational gastrocnemius muscle flap and skin graft.
Despite prolonged immobilization, the patient quickly regained full range of motion of her skeletal reconstruction.
Synthetic mesh, tapes and tubes are used to perform capsule reconstruction of megaprosthesis.
This paper describes the role of human acellular dermal matrix in capsule reconstruction around a megaprosthesis.
