Chondrosarcoma of the proximal radius treated by wide resection and reconstructed by 3D printed implant: A case report and description of surgical technique
Abstract:Introduction
Chondrosarcoma is the second most common primary malignancy of bone that can occur in multiple locations in the skeleton. It has been rarely reported in the proximal radius. While surgical resection is the primary treatment modality for individuals with localized disease, reconstruction can be challenging in the elbow joint due to its complex anatomy. 3D printing technology can be used in such complex cases to restore the normal anatomy after resection.
