“…This finding corroborates the current literature, which shows that successful functional results can be achieved for most patients after implantation of a mega-prosthetic replacement of the proximal femur [18, 19]. The Kaplan–Meier analysis showed that the cumulative survival of the prostheses was generally longer than the cumulative survival of the patients.…”

“…For these patients, tumor resection and prosthesis replacement can resolve the problem. Some studies have shown that after tumor-type prosthesis replacement, GCTB could be thoroughly treated, and the survival index was significantly improved, showing an adequate curative effect [29]. Therefore, the use of tumor type prosthesis replacement to treat GCTB has received much attention.…”

“…Twenty‐seven of 28 studies reported functional outcomes. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) system score was the most commonly utilized measure used to quantify function—reported in 26 studies . The range of mean MSTS system scores following limb salvage with TF, PF, DF, and PT megaprosthetics were 19 to 24, 21 to 28.3, 21.8 to 27.3, and 19.8 to 26, respectively.…”
