Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the short-term effectiveness of three-dimensional (3D) printing personalized prosthesis in the treatment of giant cell tumor of bone around knee joint. METHODS: A clinical data of 9 patients with giant cell tumor of bone around knee joints and met the inclusive criteria between May 2014 and August 2017 was retrospectively analysed. There were 4 males and 5 females, with an average age of 35.8 years (range, 24-50 years). The lesion located at the distal femur in 4 cases and at the proximal tibia in 5 cases. The disease duration was 5-25 months (mean, 12.9 months). According to Campanacci grading, there were 2 patients of grade Ⅰ and 7 of grade Ⅱ. The 3D printing personalized prosthesis was designed based on the CT scanning and 3D reconstruction prepared before operation. All patients were treated with the tumor resection and 3D printing personalized prosthesis reconstruction. The radiological examination was taken to observe the tumor recurrence and the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society 1993 (MSTS93) score was used to evaluate the knee function. RESULTS: All operations were successful and all incisions healed by first intention without early complications. All patients were followed up 24-40 months (mean, 31.2 months). At last follow-up, no complication such as pain, pathological fracture, prosthesis loosening, or tumor recurrence occurred. The MSTS93 score was 20-29 (mean, 24.7). The knee function was rated as excellent in 6 cases and good in 3 cases, with the excellent and good rate of 100%. CONCLUSION: For giant cell tumor of bone around knee joint, 3D printing personalized prosthesis has the advantages of bio-fusion with host bone, mechanical stability, good joint function, and ideal short-term effectiveness. But the middle- and long-term effectiveness still need to be further observed.
