[Paget's coxarthrosis. Implantation of a modular tumor reconstruction system. Case report].
A male patient aged 69 years suffering from Paget-coxarthrosis with a large distension of the proximal femur was implanted a cementless tumor reconstruction system. The surgical procedure consisted of opening of the femoral shaft with a special drill, insertion of the prosthesis and its anchorage within the healthy distal bone. By this method we were able to save the femoral muscle insertion planes. Twenty-eight months postoperatively the patient is pain-free and very satisfied with the outcome. The X-rays show a good fit of the prosthesis. The Harris Hip Score is now 90.1 points as compared to 46.4 points preoperatively.
