This is a short treatment outcome awareness video of a limb salvage surgery for bone tumour by Dr Srimanth B S.
Giant cell tumour (GCT) is a rare, aggressive growing benign tumour of the bone, found in young adults.
A core needle biopsy was performed to obtain the diagnosis of GCT. An extended curettage (disease clearance with high speed burr) was done. Subsequent cavity in the upper end of femur was reconstructed with Bone Allograft reconstruction. We avoided any use of implants due to the satisfactory stability.
Adequate care must be taken when the tumour is close to the joint cartilage, so as to protect the joint surface of the hip. Return to activity is early in this mode of reconstruction, but with certain restrictions.
