Abstract:[Objective] To explore the factors affecting function after wide resection and modular megaprosthetic replacement for ag- gressive bone tumors around the knee. [Methods] A retrospective study was performed on 31 patients who underwent wide resection and modular megaprosthetic replacement for aggressive bone tumor around the knee. The clinical consequences were observed by follow up, and radiographical measurements, including the osteotomy length ratio (OLR), internal- external medulla ratio (IEMR) and bilateral leg length discrepancy (LLD), and femorotibial mechanical axis angle (MAA) were recorded. The patients grouped according to tumor site, con- stitution and tumor feature were compared, and the correlation analysis was performed between clinical and imaging data. [Results] All the 31 patients were successfully operated on without serious intraoperative complications, whereas with operation time of (174.0±54.7) min, the intraoperative blood loss of (388.7±260.6) ml, and the incision length of (28.1±4.3) cm. During the follow-up period lasted for an aver- age of (39.3±18.9) months, 2 cases of lung metastasis, 1 case of multiple systemic metastasis and 2 cases of local recurrence were found and treated respectively. At the last follow-up, the clinical scores were recorded as SF-36 score of (129.3±29.0), MSTS score of (22.3±4.7), TESS score of (112.1±14.9), and KSS functional score of (64.0±19.4), additionally, the radiographical parameters were measured as OLR of (38.0±8.1)%, IEMR of (112.4±29.1)%, LLD of (35.5±132.6) mm and MAA of (178.3±1.3)°. At the latest follow-up, the tumor free survival rate was of 87.1%, while the prosthetic survival rate was of 96.8%. In term of grouping comparison, there was no significant difference re- garding of SF-36, MSTS, TESS, and KSS scores among groups by tumor site, patient constitution, and tumor feature (P>0.05). As results of Pearson correlation analysis, significantly negative correlation were noticed between the SF-36 score and OLR (r=-0.596, P<0.001), TESS score and LLD (r=-0.495, P=0.005), MSTS score and OLR (r=-0.568, P=0.001), MSTS and LLD (r=-0.368, P=0.044), as well as KSS score and LLD (r=-0.457, P=0.010). However, all the clinical scores were not correlated with IEMR and MAA (P>0.05). [Conclusion] This wide resection and modular megaprosthetic replacement do effectively treated aggressive bone tumors around the knee with benefits of improving patients' quality of life and functional recovery. However, the OLR and LLD were significantly correlated with postoperative qual- ity of life and function.
