Abstract

The proximal femur is a usual anatomic location for primary malignant or benign tumors and metastatic disease [1, 2]. The improvement of surgical management of tumors of the proximal femur amalgamated with advances in the field of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy further improved the patients’ function and quality of life during the last years. Hindquarter amputation remains an option especially for aggressive sarcomas of the proximal femur; however, limb salvage is now more than ever a feasible option [2]. Reconstructive surgery is the method of choice to achieve limb salvage and retention of function [3].
