Anatomic 3D-Printed Endoprosthetic With Multiligament Reconstruction After En Bloc Resection in Giant Cell Tumor of Distal Radius.

Abstract

A 34-year-old woman was diagnosed with a giant cell tumor of the right distal radius with extensive articular invasion. After en-bloc resection of 5.5 cm of the distal radius, reconstruction was done with three-dimensional printing custom-made distal radius prosthesis. In addition, a multiligament reconstruction was done to prevent postoperative radiocarpal subluxation and imitate the native distal radius. At 18 months, the range of motion was 20° dorsiflexion, 10° palmar flexion, 10° supination, and 60° pronation. Her grip strength was 60% compared with the contralateral side. No complications were seen during this 2-year follow-up. We present the combined 3-dimensional printed custom-made prosthetic with multiligament reconstruction as an innovative method without postoperative complication at 2 years.
