Abstract

Introduction There is no consensus regarding the reconstruction method for type 1 resections around the pelvis. Various methods are currently used, such as resection without reconstruction, bone graft (autologous, recycled, allograft) with simple fixation, and pedicle screw-rod fixation with or without bone grafting. We aim to study the outcome of pedicle screw-rod reconstruction without bone grafting in type 1 pelvic resections involving sacroiliac joint to show that pedicle screw-rod construct alone is stable and has low risk of failure. Material and methods This is a retrospective review of eight patients who underwent type 1 resection of malignant pelvic tumours and reconstruction with a pedicle screw-rod system between 2011 and 2018. All patients who underwent type 1 resection and reconstruction with pedicle screw without bone grafting were included into this study. We reported their clinical (complication and radiological outcome), oncological (local recurrence and metastasis), and functional outcome based on Musculoskeletal Tumour Society Score (MSTS) and The Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) at their last follow-up. Results Eight patients were recruited into the study. The mean follow-up period was 58.5 months (range: 40 - 121 months). There were three postoperative complications in three different patients: superficial infection, surgical hernia with ipsilateral femoral avascular necrosis (AVN), and femoral nerve injury. At the end of the study period, one patient passed away due to disease progression, one patient was alive with disease, and the rest were disease-free. Mean MSTS score during last follow-up was 77.1% (range: 66.7% - 93.3%), while mean TESS score was 75.6% range (63.3% - 80.2%). There were no cases of implant failure. Conclusion Type 1 pelvic reconstruction with a pedicle screw-rod system is stable without a concurrent biological reconstruction, and it is feasible, with few complications, and an excellent functional outcome.
