Total hip/knee arthroplasty in the treatment of tumor-induced osteomalacia patients: More than 1 year follow-up.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) may result in a better prognosis after complete resection of the causative neoplasm. However, tumors located proximal to the articular surface of the metaphysis remain largely uninvestigated.

Methods

A retrospective study of sixteen patients was undertaken to evaluate treatment of tumors with joint arthroplasty and tumor resection. The bone metabolism index, hip/knee joint function, arthroplasty complications and symptoms were followed up for at least 12 months in each patient.

Results

All patients presented with neoplasms situated in the articular surface of the metaphysis, with 13 cases undergoing hip arthroplasty and 3 undergoing knee arthroplasty. Treatment of the tumors with joint arthroplasty and tumor resection significantly and rapidly ameliorate bone metabolism indexes in patients with TIO (p<0.01), with no identified tumor recurrence. The joint function evaluation score was improved in 15 patients (93.75%). Complications in these patients included post-operative pain, joint squeaking and secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Conclusions

Joint arthroplasty that includes tumor-expanding resection appears to be a safe and appropriate method for the treatment of TIO patients with a neoplasm located in the metaphysis proximal to the articular surface.
