Biological Prosthesis (Hollow 3D-Printed Titanium Custom-Made Prosthesis and Bone Graft) for Humeral Reconstruction in Pediatric Oncologic Patients: Surgical Indications and Results

Biological Prosthesis (Hollow 3D-Printed Titanium Custom-Made Prosthesis and Bone Graft) for Humeral Reconstruction in Pediatric Oncologic Patients: Surgical Indications and Results

This study presents the mid-term outcomes of a novel “biological prosthesis” for pediatric humerus reconstruction after major bone tumor removal. This approach involves a hollow 3D-printed titanium custom-made prosthesis combined with bone grafting. The primary aim was to preserve and revitalize the...
