title: [New developments in surgery of bone tumors].
abstract: Due to advances in adjuvant therapy, the outlook for patients with primary malignant bone tumors has dramatically improved over the last decades. This is true for improved survival and also for increased limb salvage rates. Technical aspects of the standard limb salvage procedures such as Tikhoff Linberg resection in the shoulder region internal hemipelvectomy, proximal and distal femur resection and rotation plasty are demonstrated. The use of soft tissue procedures like flaps and the use of modular implant systems has reduced complication rates. In the future, we hope to further improve the outlook for our patients with risk adapted chemotherapeutic regimes and surgical procedures.
