A reduction in tumor volume exceeding 65% predicts a good histological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with Ewing sarcoma. Skeletal Radiol 2024:10.1007/s00256-024-04702-7. [PMID: 38713225 DOI: 10.1007/s00256-024-04702-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE No consensus exists for tumor volume response criteria in patients with Ewing sarcoma. This study aimed to identify an optimal cutoff for predicting a good histological response by analyzing tumor volume changes and tumor necrosis after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 184 Ewing sarcoma patients, analyzing tumor volume changes before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients were divided into two groups based on histological response: good (tumor necrosis ≥ 95%) and poor (tumor necrosis < 95%) responders. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) area under the curve (AUC) method was used to determine the optimal thresholds for predicting the histological response. Additionally, the prognostic value of this cutoff for relapse-free survival was assessed. RESULTS Out of 184 patients, 83 (45%) had tumor necrosis ≥ 95%, while 101 (55%) had tumor necrosis < 95%. ROC analysis identified the optimal cutoff for a good histological response as over 65% tumor volume reduction (AUC = 0.69; p < 0.001). Patients with volume reduction of ≥ 65% had a higher likelihood of a good histological response than those with lesser reductions (p = 0.004; odds ratio = 2.61). Multivariable analysis indicated a correlation between poor histological response and reduced relapse-free survival (hazard ratio = 2.17; p = 0.01), while tumor volume reduction itself did not impact survival. CONCLUSION We reported that a tumor volume reduction of ≥ 65% was able to predict a good histological response in Ewing sarcoma patients. We recommend preoperative tumor volume assessment to identify patients at greater risk for poor histological response who could benefit from more intensive chemotherapy protocols or additional radiotherapy.

Abstract
Background The frozen inactivation of autologous tumor bones using liquid nitrogen is an important surgical method for limb salvage in patients with sarcoma. At present, there are few research reports related to frozen inactivated autograft replantation. Methods In this study, we retrospectively collected the clinical data of patients with bone and soft tissue sarcoma treated with liquid nitrogen-frozen inactivated tumor bone replantation, and analyzed the safety and efficacy of this surgical method. The healing status of the frozen inactivated autografts was evaluated using the International Society of Limb Salvage (ISOLS) scoring system. Functional status of patients was assessed using the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scale. Results This study included 43 patients. The average length of the bone defect after tumor resection is 16.9 cm (range 6.3-35.3 cm). Patients with autograft not including the knee joint surface had significantly better healing outcomes (ISOLS scores) (80.6% ± 15% vs 28.2% ± 4.9%, P<0.001) and limb function (MSTS score) (87% ± 11.6% vs 27.2% ± 4.4%, P<0.001) than patients with autografts including the knee joint surface. The healing time of the end of inactivated autografts near the metaphyseal was significantly shorter than that of the end far away from the metaphyseal (9.8 ± 6.3 months vs 14.9 ± 6.3 months, P=0.0149). One patient had local recurrence, one had an autograft infection, five (all of whom had an autograft including the knee joint surface) had joint deformities, and seven had bone non-union. Conclusion Frozen inactivated autologous tumor bone replantation is safe and results in good bone healing. But this method is not suitable for patients with autograft involving the knee joint surface.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The inactivation and replantation of autologous tumor bones are important surgical methods for limb salvage in patients with malignancies. Currently, there are few reports on the inactivation and replantation of the knee joint. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility of our surgical approach. METHODS This is a retrospective case series study. We retrospectively collected the clinical data of patients with sarcoma treated with knee joint inactivation and replantation and analyzed the efficacy of this surgical method. The bone healing and complications in these patients after inactivated autograft replantation were assessed. RESULTS This study included 16 patients. Fifteen patients had osteosarcoma, and one had Ewing's sarcoma. The average length of the inactivated bone is 20.2 cm (range 13.5-25.3 cm). All the patients underwent internal plate fixation. The average follow-up duration was 30 months (range 8-60 months). Before the data deadline of this study, eight (50%) patients were still alive, and eight (50%) died of sarcoma metastasis. Eight (50%) patients achieved bone healing at the diaphysis site of the inactivated tumor bone, with an average bone healing time of 21.9 months (range, 12-36 months). Five (31%) patients died due to metastases and did not achieve bone healing. Two (12.5%) patients did not achieve bone healing because of infection, and one (6.3%) patient underwent amputation due to tumor recurrence. Ten (62.5%) patients experienced fractures around the joint ends of the inactivated replanted bone, and eight of these ten patients were combined with joint dislocation. CONCLUSION The incidence of joint deformities after the knee-joint inactivation and replantation is extremely high and is not recommended for use.

[PMID: 36547183 PMCID: PMC9777178 DOI: 10.3390/curroncol29120769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
This systematic review investigated the functional outcomes and complications of reconstruction methods after talar tumor resection. A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases identified 156 studies, of which 20 (23 patients) were ultimately included. The mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scores in the groups reconstructed using tibiocalcaneal fusion (n = 17), frozen autograft (n = 1), and talar prosthesis (n = 5) were 77.6 (range 66-90), 70, and 90 (range 87-93), respectively. Regarding complications, sensory deficits were observed in one patient (6%) and venous thrombosis in two patients (12%) in the tibiocalcaneal fusion group, while osteoarthritis was observed in one patient (100%) in the frozen autograft group. No complications were observed in the talar prosthesis group. Reconstruction with talar prosthesis seems preferable to conventional tibiocalcaneal fusion after talar tumor resection because it offers better function and fewer complications. However, as this systematic review included only retrospective studies with a small number of patients, its results require re-evaluation in future randomized controlled trials with larger numbers of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We designed a highly adhesive cryoprotectant-gel composite (CGC), based on regular liquid-form cryoprotectant base (CB), aiming to protect cartilage tissue during frozen osteoarticular autograft reconstruction for high-grade sarcoma around the joint. This study aimed to evaluate its effectiveness in rat and porcine distal femur models. DESIGN Fresh articular cartilage samples harvested from distal rat and porcine femurs were divided into 4 test groups: untreated control group, liquid nitrogen (LN) freezing group, LN freezing group pretreated with CB (CB group), and LN freezing group pretreated with CGC (CGC group). Microscopic and macroscopic evaluation of cartilage condition, TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling) assay, and apoptotic protein analysis of chondrocytes were performed to confirm our results. RESULTS In the rat model, CGC could prevent articular cartilage from roughness and preserve more proteoglycans when compared with the LN freezing and CB groups. Western blot analysis showed CGC could prevent cartilage from LN-induced apoptosis supported by caspase-3/8 apoptotic signaling cascade. Macroscopically, we observed CGC could reduce both articular clefting and loss of articular luminance after freezing in the porcine model. In both models, CGC could reduce articular chondrocytes from degeneration. Fewer TUNEL-positive apoptotic and more viable chondrocytes in cartilage tissue were observed in the CGC group in our animal models. CONCLUSION Our study proved that CGC could effectively prevent cartilage surface and chondrocytes from cryoinjury after LN freezing. Freezing articular cartilage surrounded with high concentration of CGC can be a better alternative to preserve articular cartilage during limb salvage surgery for malignant bone tumor.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS We designed a patella cryo-free method to protect patella from cryoinjury during recycled frozen bone-prosthesis-composite reconstruction for proximal tibial malignancy. This study aimed to use animal model to ensure safety and efficacy of this method and reported our clinical outcomes. METHODS Six swine proximal tibias along with patella and patellar tendon were harvested and dived into group A (n = 3, traditional patella freezing) and group B (n = 3, patella cryo-free). Temperature curve measurement, histological analysis, and TUNEL assay were performed in both groups. Clinically, we retrospectively reviewed 23 patients with proximal tibia malignant bone tumor (13: traditional patella freezing method; 10: patella cryo-free method). The clinical and functional outcomes were reported and compared in both groups. RESULTS Temperature curve of the group B showed that ideal therapeutic temperature (<-60°C) required to kill tumor cells can be achieved in the proximal tibia while the innocent patella can be kept in room temperature at all time. Histological analysis showed better preservation of the cartilage tissue in patella of group B. TUNEL assay showed significantly more apoptotic cells in the frozen tibia of both groups and frozen patella of group A. When reviewing our clinical results, less complication of the patella as well as better functional preservation were found in patients subjecting to patella cryo-free method. No local recurrence was observed in either group. CONCLUSION Patellar cryo-free technique could protect patella from cryoinjury during freezing and therefore preserve more extensor functions for patients with proximal tibial malignant bone tumors.

Abstract
Surgery for bone metastasis has two primary goals-palliative care to relieve pain, instability and paralysis, and tumor resection for curing the disease. Oncologically en bloc resection, followed by a reconstruction of the bone defect is the treatment of choice in single bone metastasis from renal cell carcinoma or thyroid cancer. Bone metastases may occur in the extremities, pelvis, or spine, and different resection and reconstruction methods depend on the regional anatomy. For instance, multiple options are available for reconstruction of the pelvis, especially for the acetabulum, including anatomical reconstruction using custom-made implants or recycled autologous bone grafting when a long-term prognosis is expected. Recently, for the spine, total en bloc spondylectomy is extensively performed despite the initial limitations of surgical invasiveness, such as blood loss. Principally, palliative surgery aims to maintain lasting bony stability with minimal surgical invasiveness. Intramedullary nails and plate fixation are frequently used in the extremities but the postoperative failure rate is relatively high. Therefore, surgeons should consider the use of long intramedullary nails and long-type stems for endoprosthesis reconstruction along with cement fixation to reduce the failure rate. Although short-term complications, such as dislocation, have been observed with endoprosthesis reconstruction, it is stable in the long-term follow-up. Percutaneous bone cement injection into the spine and pelvis is also effective and less invasive.

Abstract
Age affects the clinical outcomes of cancer treatment, including those for bone sarcoma. Successful reconstruction using frozen autograft after excision of bone sarcoma has been reported; however, little is known about the clinical outcomes of frozen autograft reconstruction according to age. The purpose was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the frozen autograft reconstruction focusing on skeletally mature adolescents and young adults (AYAs) that was 15 to 39 years of age. A total of 37 AYA patients with primary bone sarcoma on the appendicular skeleton were enrolled in this study. The mean follow-up period was 89 months. The graft survival (GS), overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), complications and the function were retrospectively evaluated using medical records. The 10-year GS, OS, and RFS rates were 76%, 84%, and 79%, respectively. Bone union was achieved with a rate of 94% within 1 year after surgery, and nonunion (n = 1) and fracture (n = 2) were infrequently observed. Graft removal was performed in 7 cases, and the most common reason for the removal was infection (n = 5). The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score was excellent in 23 cases of the available 29 cases. Frozen autograft reconstruction for AYAs showed excellent clinical outcomes, although the long-term follow-up is required.

Hashimoto Y, Tome Y, Oshiro H, Aoki Y, Maehara H, Nishida K. Reconstruction of the elbow using pedicle joint freezing after wide excision for soft tissue sarcoma: A case report. Mol Clin Oncol 2021; 14:115. [PMID: 33903821 PMCID: PMC8060848 DOI: 10.3892/mco.2021.2277] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
A 35-year-old man presented with a four-year history of a growing mass on the anterior aspect of his left elbow. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a soft tissue tumor in the brachialis muscle extending to the cubital fossa. Following an open biopsy, the tumor was diagnosed as a monophasic fibrous synovial sarcoma. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the patient underwent wide excision and reconstruction of the elbow joint with a pedicle frozen autograft. At the final follow-up four years after surgery, the elbow range of motion was 0-120˚. Although there were signs of osteoarthritis, there was no narrowing of the joint -, and the patient experienced only mild pain. To the best of our knowledge, the present case report is the first to describe wide tumor excision and reconstruction using a pedicle frozen autograft of the elbow. This method should be considered after excision of malignant bone and soft tissue tumors, especially in non-weight-bearing joints. Further cases have to be evaluated to understand the complications and long-term prognosis of this procedure.

Pelvic Chondrosarcoma Treated by En Bloc Resection with Patient-Specific Osteotomy Guides and Reimplantation of the Extracorporeally Irradiated Bone as an Osseocartilaginous Structural Orthotopic Autograft: A Report of Two Cases with Description of the Surgical Technique. Case Rep Orthop 2021; 2021:5512143. [PMID: 33868736 PMCID: PMC8035037 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5512143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2021] [Accepted: 03/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Primary tumors of the pelvis are considered difficult to treat due to the complex anatomy and the proximity of important neurovascular structures. The surgical armamentarium for the treatment of these tumors has evolved with the help of cutting-edge technology from debilitating hemipelvectomies to solutions such as precise resections guided by patient-specific instruments or computer navigation and reconstruction by modular prostheses, 3D-printed custom-made implants, or orthotopic autograft reimplantation after extracorporeal irradiation. Different combinations of these techniques have been described in the literature with various rates of success. We present two cases of pelvic chondrosarcomas successfully treated by a combination of periacetabular resection with patient-specific osteotomy guides and orthotopic reimplantation of the extracorporeally irradiated autograft resulting in retention of the native hip.
