Abstract
Background Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma (DCS) is a highly malignant variant that portends a poor prognosis. Although factors such as clinico-pathological characteristics, surgical margin, and adjuvant modalities likely play a role in overall survival, debate continues with varying results on the importance of these indicators. The purpose of this study is (1) To delineate the characteristics, local recurrence (LR), and survival of patients with intermediate (IGCS), high (HGCS) and dedifferentiated (DCS) chondrosarcoma of the extremity by utilizing detailed cases at one tertiary institution. (2) To assess survival between high grade chondrosarcoma and DCS utilizing a less detailed but large cohort from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Methods Twenty-six cases of high-grade (conventional FNCLCC grades 2 and 3, dedifferentiated) chondrosarcoma were identified from an ongoing prospective cohort of 630 sarcoma patients managed surgically at a tertiary referral university hospital between 9/1/2010-12/30/2019. A retrospective review of demographics, tumor characteristics, surgical procedure, treatment course, and survival data was performed to determine prognostic factors for survival. An additional 516 cases of chondrosarcoma were identified from the SEER database. Using the Kaplan-Meier method, both the large database and case series were evaluated, and estimated cause-specific survival was calculated at 1, 2, and 5 years. Results There were 12 IGCS, 5 HGCS, and 9 DCS patients in the single institution cohort. DCS had a higher stage at diagnosis (p=0.04). Limb salvage was the most common procedure performed in every group (11/12 IGCS, 5/5 HGCS, and 7/9 DCS; p=0.56). Margins included 8/12 wide and 3/12 intralesional for IGCS. For HGCS, there were 3/5 wide, 1/5 marginal, and 1/5 intralesional. A majority of DCS margins were wide (8/9) with only 1 marginal. There was no difference of associated margins between the groups (p=0.85), however there was a difference when margins were classified based on numerical measurement (IGCS: 0.125cm (0.1-0.35); HGCS: 0cm (0-0.1); DCS: 0.2cm (0.1-0.5); p=0.03). The overall median follow-up was 26 months (IQR:16.1-70.8). The time interval from resection to death was lower in DCS (11.5 months (10.7-12.2)), followed by IGCS (30.3 months (16.2-78.2)), and HGCS (55.1 months (32.0-78.2; p=0.047). LR occurred in 5/9 DCS, 1/5 HGCS, and 1/14 IGCS patients. Of the DCS patients only 2/6 who received systemic therapy had LR, while all 3/3 who did not receive systemic therapy had LR. Overall systemic therapy and radiation did not impact incidence of LR (p=0.67; p=0.34). However, patients who had LR were 17.5 times more likely to die within one year (HR=17.5, 95%CI (1.01-303.7), p=0.049), after adjusting for the age at the surgery. There was no correlation with the utilization of systemic therapy, radiation therapy, or margin and overall survival (p=0.63, p=0.52, p=0.74). In the SEER patient cohort, 149 cases (28.9%) were DCS and 367 (71.1%) were HGCS. At final follow-up, 49.6% (n=256) of the cohort had a cause of death due to chondrosarcoma. HGCS was associated with higher chance of 1-year survial (p<0.001), 2-year survival (p<0.001), 5-year survival (p<0.001), and overall survival (p<0.001). Additionally, decreased survival was associated with metastatic disease at presentation (p=0.01). Overall limb salvage was most utilized for both HGCS (76.5%) and DCS (74.3%). In regard to limb salvage vs. amputation, there was no difference in survival at 1 year (p=0.10) or 2 year (p=0.13) between the groups, however those who underwent limb salvage procedure had a significantly better chance of survival at 5 years when compared to amputation (HR=1.49 (1.11-1.99); p=0.002). Conclusion High-grade chondrosarcoma remains a fatal disease in many patients, particularly if associated with dedifferentiated subtype. Interestingly, all (100%) DCS patients who did not receive systemic therapy had LR. However, chemotherapy and radiation did not significantly increase survival. In this case series and large database study, HGCS had the smallest surgical margin, but with the longest time interval for both LR and death. Additionally, using the SEER database, DCS and amputation had worse prognosis at the 5-year survival time. Further studies on valuable prognostic influences as well as earlier identification of this rare disease may help in developing better management options. Level of Evidence: III.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REPORT Several methods are used to reconstruct bony defects after malignant tumor excision. Tumor-bearing frozen autograft reconstruction is a biological procedure in which tumor-bearing bone is reused after devitalization with liquid nitrogen to kill tumor cells. The viability of frozen autografts has not been fully evaluated over time. We therefore aimed to evaluate the viability of devitalized bone grafts, using 99m Tc-MDP scintigraphy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-four patients who underwent frozen autograft reconstruction after the excision of a malignant bone tumor were enrolled. Two hundred forty-two postoperative 99m Tc-MDP scans were reviewed. For a quantitative analysis, the region of interest on the frozen bone segment and a symmetric region of interest on the contralateral normal area were manually set. The radioactive tracer uptake ratio was calculated by dividing the count density of the frozen bone segment by that of the contralateral normal area in each image. An uptake ratio of 0.9 to 1.1 was defined as a normalization of tracer uptake. RESULTS Normalization of tracer uptake was achieved in 95% to 97% of the cases by 60 months postoperatively, and earlier in the middle zone and peripheral zone in the pedicle freezing group in comparison to the free freezing group (both P = 0.03). Fracture and nonunion was associated with a low uptake ratio, whereas infection was associated with a high uptake ratio before the occurrence of the event. CONCLUSIONS The calculation of the uptake ratio using 99m Tc-MDP scans was an objective and accurate evaluation method. The period to normalization of tracer uptake in the pedicle frozen bone was significantly earlier than that in the free frozen bone. The postoperative complications can be also predicted.

JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2023; 2023:8635829. [PMID: 37089259 PMCID: PMC10118882 DOI: 10.1155/2023/8635829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 04/25/2023]
Abstract
Background The study aims to identify whether osteosarcoma patients of children and young adults will benefit from a survival profit from the choice of the operation method. Methods The National Cancer Institute SEER database from 2000 to 2018 was selected for a retrospective analysis of 1630 children and young adults with a primary diagnosis of osteosarcoma, 1222 who underwent limb-preserving surgery, and 408 who underwent amputation. Confounders were controlled for by propensity score matching (PSM), cancer-specific survival (CSS) was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and univariate and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the factors influencing the prognosis of children and young osteosarcoma patients after surgery. A nomogram plot predicted 1-, 3-, and 5- survival rate in osteosarcoma. The model's accuracy was validated by the area under the ROC and calibration curves. Results After PSM, multifactor Cox regression analysis found AJCC Stage III-IV (CSS : HR = 5.26, 95% CI 1.95-14.18, p=0. 001; HR = 5.54, 95% CI 2.56-12.01, p < 0. 001. Limb salvage surgery (CSS : HR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.44-0.77, p < 0. 001) has independent impact factors for CSS prognosis. The survival curve before and after PSM showed that patients with osteosarcoma of children and young adults who underwent limb salvage surgery had a survival benefit compared with those who underwent amputation surgery. Gender, chemotherapy, histology, primary tumor site, stage, and surgical modality were modeled in a total of six variables in the nomogram. The model exhibited good predictive performance. The AUC were 0.823, 0.74, and 0.757 for training set at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively. The AUC of validation set 0.666, 0.722, and 0.699 at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively. The model also predicted CSS with good fidelity for both datasets. This model was significantly superior to the 8th edition of the AJCC TNM staging system, with a better net benefit in predicting CSS in children and young adults with osteosarcoma. Conclusion Limb salvage surgery is an option for children and young adults with osteosarcoma and cancer-specific survival rates can be improved by receiving limb salvage surgery.

Abstract
Increasing evidences have shown that surgeon volume was associated with postoperative complications or outcomes in a variety of orthopaedics surgeries, but few were focused on ankle fractures. This study aimed to investigate the deep surgical site infection (DSSI) in association with the surgeon volume following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of ankle fractures. This was a retrospective analysis of the prospectively collected data on patients who underwent ORIF for acute closed ankle fractures between October 2014 and June 2020. Surgeon volume was defined as the number of ORIF procedures performed within 12 months preceding the index operation. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed to determine the optimal cut-off value, whereby surgeon volume was dichotomized as high or low. The outcome was DSSI within 1 year postoperatively. Multivariate logistics analysis was performed to examine the DSSI in association with surgeon volume and multiple sensitivity/subgroup analyses were performed to refine the findings. Among 1562 patients, 33 (2.1%) developed a DSSI. The optimal cut-off value was 7/year. Low-volume (<7/year) was significantly associated with a 5.0-fold increased risk of DSSI (95%CI, 2.2-11.3; P < .001). Sensitivity/subgroup analyses restricted to patients aged <65 years, with or without concurrent fractures, with unimalleolar fractures, bi- or trimalleolar fractures, receiving ORIF within 14 days and those operated by ≥10-year experience surgeons showed the consistently significant results (ORs, 2.7-6.8, all P < .05). The surgeon volume of <7 cases/year is associated with an increased risk of DSSI. It is more feasible that patients with complex fractures or conditions (eg, bi- and trimalleolar or presence of concurrent fractures) are preferentially directed to high-volume and experienced surgeons.

Amputation for Extremity Sarcoma: Indications and Outcomes. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13205125.

Abstract
Simple Summary Sarcomas are malignant tumors of soft tissues or bone. While limb salvage surgery (LSS) is the standard treatment, amputation is an option especially in local recurrence (LR) or complications after LSS. Two groups with primary amputations (n = 120) or secondary amputations after failed LSS due to LR or complications (n = 29) were compared. Five-year LR-free survival was 84% and 17 (16%) patients developed LR, of which 16 were in group I and only one in group II. Overall survival (OS) at five years was 44%, and the rate was identical in both groups. In those group II patients who had a secondary amputation after LSS due to contaminated margins or LR (n = 12) five-year OS was 33% compared to 48% in patients with complications (n = 17). This study indicates the worse oncological outcomes with respect to OS of sarcoma patients needing an amputation as compared to LSS. Patients with primary amputation or those who had a secondary amputation after failed LSS for whatever reason showed the same results. Abstract Background: Sarcomas are rare, malignant tumors of soft tissues or bone. Limb salvage surgery (LSS) is the standard treatment, but amputation is still an option, especially in local recurrence or complications after LSS. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed indications and oncological outcomes in patients who underwent an amputation. Two groups with either primary amputations (n = 120) or with secondary amputations after failed LSS with local recurrence or complications (n = 29) were compared with the main end points of LRFS and OS. Results: Five-year LRFS was 84% with 17 (16%) patients developing local recurrence, of which 16 (13%) occurred in group I. Forty-two (28%) patients developed metastatic disease and overall survival at five years was 44%. Overall survival (OS) was the same in both groups. In those group II patients who had a secondary amputation due to LR or insufficient margins after LSS (n = 12) the five-year OS was 33% compared to 48% in patients with amputation due to complications (n = 17) (n.s.). Conclusions: This study indicates the worse oncological outcomes with respect to OS of sarcoma patients requiring an amputation as compared to LSS. Patients with primary amputation or those who had a secondary amputation after failed LSS for whatever reason showed the same oncological results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emerging evidences supported that the surgeon case volume significantly affected post-operative complications or outcomes following a range of elective or non-elective orthopaedic surgery; no data has been available for surgically treated tibial plateau fractures. We aimed to investigate the relationship between surgeon volume and the risk of deep surgical site infection (DSSI) following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of closed tibial plateau fracture. METHODS This was a further analysis of the prospectively collected data. Adult patients undergoing ORIF procedure for closed tibial plateau fracture between January 2016 and December 2019 were included. Surgeon volume was defined as the number of surgically treated tibial fractures in the preceding 12 months and dichotomized on the basis of the optimal cut-off value determined by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The outcome was DSSI within one year post-operatively. Multiple multivariate logistic models were constructed for "drilling down" adjustment of confounders. Sensitivity and subgroup analyses were performed to assess the robustness of outcome and identify the "optimal" subgroups. RESULTS Among 742 patients, 20 (2.7%) had a DSSI and 17 experienced re-operations. The optimal cut-off value for case volume was nine, and the low-volume surgeon was independently associated with 2.9-fold (OR, 2.9; 95%CI, 1.1 to 7.5) increased risk of DSSI in the totally adjusted multivariate model. The sensitivity analyses restricted to patients with original BMI data or those operated within 14 days after injury did not alter the outcomes (OR, 2.937, and 95%CI, 1.133 to 7.615; OR, 2.658, and 95%CI, 1.018 to 7.959, respectively). The subgroup analyses showed a trend to higher risk of DSSI for type I-IV fractures (OR, 4.6; 95%CI, 0.9 to 27.8) classified as Schatzker classification and substantially higher risk in patients with concurrent fractures (OR, 6.1; 95%CI, 1.0 to 36.5). CONCLUSION The surgeon volume is independently associated with the rate of DSSI, and a number of ≥ nine cases/year are necessarily kept for reducing DSSIs; patients with concurrent fractures should be preferentially operated on by high-volume surgeons.

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.

Abstract
Chondrosarcoma is the second most common primary bone tumor, with >90% of cases representing the primary conventional subtype. In addition to arising de novo, conventional chondrosarcoma can arise secondary to a benign underlying lesion, such as enchondroma or osteochondroma. Symptoms are often characterized by focal, dull, aching pain to the affected region. Grade is a well-recognized prognostic factor in these tumors. Grade I lesions/atypical cartilaginous tumors rarely metastasize, rarely recur, and have a 10-year survival rate of >80%. By contrast, grade III lesions are associated with a poor prognosis with the highest local recurrence rates, a lung metastasis rate of >50%, and a 10-year survival rate of <30%. The standard treatment of high-grade conventional chondrosarcoma is complete surgical resection with wide margin. However, low-grade lesions may be amenable to curettage plus or minus adjuvant local treatment. Conventional chondrosarcoma does not respond to chemotherapy or standard radiation doses. Adjuvant treatment can be beneficial for some subtypes such as chemotherapy for dedifferentiated and mesenchymal chondrosarcoma and radiation additionally for mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. Emerging radiation technologies may also play a useful role in treating tumors in anatomically complex areas such as the spine or pelvis.

Prognostic Nomograms to Predict Overall Survival and Cancer-specific Survival in Sacrum/Pelvic Chondrosarcoma (SC) Patients: A Population-based Propensity Score-matched Study. Clin Spine Surg 2021; 34:E177-E185. [PMID: 33017339 DOI: 10.1097/bsd.0000000000001089] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2019] [Accepted: 06/19/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
STUDY DESIGN A longitudinal cohort study. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognostic factors and determine the difference between different surgery scopes. Nomograms were constructed and validated to predict overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of sacrum/pelvic chondrosarcoma (SC) patients. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Chondrosarcoma is a bone malignancy which is reported to be resistant to both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Therefore, surgery is the most preferred treatment method. However, this remains a great challenge due to the complex anatomy of the area. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database of patients with conventional SC between 1998 and 2016 was retrieved for analysis. Cox analysis was used to estimate the mortality hazards ratios among patients. Propensity score matching was used to compare different surgery scope. Nomograms were constructed to predict the OS and CSS of patients with SC. RESULTS A total of 377 patients were included in this study. The cutoff value for tumor size was considered to be 118 mm. The concordance indices (C-index) value for nomogram predictions of CSS were 0.871. Following propensity score matching, 158 patients were selected for the second time and its result showed no significant difference between the scope of surgery. CONCLUSIONS Tumor size was considered to be closely related to the outcome of SC. There is no significant difference in the scope of surgery and limb salvage can be considered. The nomograms can precisely predict OS and CSS in patients with SC. These could help clinicians to perform survival assessments and identify patients at high risk. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV.

The Interval Between Preoperative Radiation and Surgery Is Not Associated with Overall Survival for Soft-tissue Sarcomas: An Analysis of the National Cancer Database. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2021; 479:506-517. [PMID: 32401002 PMCID: PMC7899587 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000001287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2019] [Accepted: 04/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most cancer centers prefer preoperative radiation therapy (preRT) over postoperative therapy to treat soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) to limit long-term fibrosis, joint stiffness, and edema. Surgery is often delayed after preRT to allow for tissue recovery and to reduce wound complications. However, the association between the time interval between preRT and surgery and survival is unknown. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What factors are associated with the preRT-surgery interval in patients with STS? (2) Is the preRT-surgery interval associated with overall survival? METHODS The National Cancer Database, a nationwide registry that includes 70% of all new cancers in the United States with 90% follow-up, was reviewed to identify 6378 patients who underwent preRT and surgical resection for a localized extremity or pelvic STS from 2004 to 2014. Patients were excluded if they had lymphatic or metastatic disease at diagnosis (23%; n = 1438), underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (24%; 1531), were missing vital status (8%; 487), had chemosensitive histologies (9%; 603), underwent radiation other than external beam (1%; 92), were missing preRT-surgery interval (1%; 45), or had a preRT-surgery interval greater than 120 days (< 1%; 6). A total of 2176 patients were included for analysis, with a mean preRT-surgery interval of 35 ± 16 days. A multiple linear regression model was generated to assess demographic, clinicopathologic, and treatment characteristics associated with the preRT-surgery interval. A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was then conducted, stratified by the preRT-surgery interval, to assess survival over 10 years. Finally, a multivariate Cox regression analysis model was constructed to further evaluate the association between the preRT-surgery interval and overall survival, adjusted for demographic, clinicopathologic, and treatment characteristics. RESULTS A longer preRT-surgery interval was associated with higher age (β = 0.002 per year [95% CI 0.0 to 0.004]; p = 0.026), tumor location in the pelvis (compared with the lower extremity; β = 0.15 [95% CI 0.082 to 0.22]; p < 0.001), and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor subtype (compared with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma; β = 0.17 [95% CI 0.044 to 0.29]; p = 0.008). A shorter preRT-surgery interval was associated with higher facility volume (β = -0.002 per case [95% CI -0.003 to -0.002]; p = 0.026) and higher tumor stage (compared with Stage I; β = -0.066 [95% CI -0.13 to -0.006]; p = 0.03 for Stage II; β = -0.12 [95% CI -0.17 to -0.065]; p < 0.001 for Stage III). The 5-year overall survival rates were similar across all preRT-surgery interval groups: less than 3 weeks (66% [95% CI 60 to 72]), 3 to 4 weeks (65% [95% CI 60 to 71]), 4 to 5 weeks (65% [95% CI 60 to 71]), 5 to 6 weeks (66% [95% CI 60 to 72]), 6 to 7 weeks (63% [95% CI 54 to 72]), 7 to 9 weeks (66% [95% CI 58 to 74]), and more than 9 weeks (59% [95% CI 48 to 69]). Over 10 years, no difference in overall survival was observed when stratified by the preRT-surgery interval (p = 0.74). After controlling for potentially confounding variables, including age, sex, Charlson/Deyo comorbidity score, histology, tumor size, stage and surgery type, the preRT-surgery interval was not associated with survival (hazard ratio = 1 per day [95% CI 1 to 1]; p = 0.88). CONCLUSION With the numbers available, this study demonstrates that a delay in surgery up to 120 days after radiation is not associated with poorer survival. Therefore, clinicians may be able to delay surgery to minimize the risks of wound complications and modifiable comorbidities without affecting overall survival.Level of Evidence Level III, therapeutic study.

Abstract
Background The pelvis is the most common site of chondrosarcoma (CS), and the prognosis for patients with pelvic CS is worse than that for patients with CS in the extremities. However, clinicians have had few tools for estimating the likelihood of survival in patients with pelvic CS. Our aim was to develop nomograms to predict survival of patients with pelvic CS. Methods Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database of patients with pelvic CS between 2004 and 2016 were retrieved for retrospective analysis. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors. On the basis of the results of the multivariate analyses, nomograms were constructed to predict the likelihood of 3‐ and 5‐year overall survival (OS) and cancer‐specific survival (CSS) of patients with pelvic CS. The concordance index (C‐index) and calibration curves were used to test the models. Results In univariate and multivariate analyses of OS, sex, pathologic grade, tumor size, tumor stage, and surgery were identified as the independent risk factors. In univariate and multivariate analyses of CSS, pathologic grade, tumor size, tumor stage, and surgery were identified as the independent risk factors. These characteristics except surgery were integrated in the nomograms for predicting 3‐ and 5‐year OS and CSS, and the C‐indexes were 0.758 and 0.786, respectively. Conclusion The nomograms precisely and individually predict OS and CSS of patients with pelvic CS and could aid in personalized prognostic evaluation and individualized clinical decision‐making.
