Abstract
The proximal humerus is the third most common site of primary bone sarcomas. The survival of patients has improved to approximately 70% surgical treatment commonly requires excision of the tumour with wide surgical margins.The aim of the study Rejoin the sports after proximal humeral replacement in patients through primary bone sarcoma. Methods: 15 patients (9 females, 6 males) with a mean age of 19.9 years (±8.4 years, range 7–39 years) at the time of surgery were included. The mean follow-up was 18 years (±7.8 years, range 6–28 years) were included. The type of sport, frequency, duration of each sport session and based on the UCLA activity score were assessed before surgery, at 1 year, 3 years and at the latest follow up. TESS used for Functional outcome. Results: One year after surgery, 60% (9/15) of the patients continued to perform sports (low impact 10/15; medium impact 2/15; high impact 1/15) (p< 0.05).Three years after surgery, 87% (13/15) of the patients were regularly participating in sports (low impact 11/15; medium impact 4/15; high impact 3/15) (p< 0.05). At latest follow-up all patients (100%) resumed performing sports (p< 0.05). Conclusion: Enduring survivors with an endoprosthetic reconstruction of the humerus following primary bone sarcoma resection resumed participation in sports on a regular basis. Regarding the low occurrence of periprosthetic infections, surgeons should bear in mind the usage of an artificial mesh for reconstruction to save you soft tissue complications, specifically in energetic patients
