Kurzfassung:
We have reviewed the results of one-stage revision surgery in 18 patients for infection of megaprostheses implanted after the resection of malignant bone and soft-tissue tumours. At a mean follow-up of 52.0 ± 35.0 months (18 to 135) infection was eliminated in 14 of the 18 patients. The infection-free patients showed no abnormal tests for inflammation and had a mean Enneking score of 20.6 ± 5.0 points (maximum 30 points). We suggest that one-stage revision without exchange of the anchorage parts is justified in patients with megaprostheses infected by antibiotic-sensitive micro-organisms.
