Surgery for benign tumors and tumor-like bone pathology using alloplasty with demineralized bone grafts

One hundred six patients with benign tumors and tumor-like bone pathology underwent surgical treatment. Depending upon clinical pattern of pathologic process, tumor structure, its location, spreading degree, as well as with account of the tendency of one or the other tumor type to recurrence, different resections (marginal, parietal, segmental) were performed. For the replacement of defects, the alloplasty with demineralized bone grafts was used, in some cases it was associated with extrafocal osteosynthesis. In follow-up period (from 2 to 13 years) none of patients (106) had developed metastases. One hundred two patients did not show orthopaedic pathology, 4 patients had minor deformities and manifestations of deforming arthrosis with moderate disturbance of neighbouring joint function. The conclusion was made about the efficacy and perspectiveness of this method.
