Current Trends in the Management of Adamantinoma of Long Bones

Abstract

Current treatment of adamantinoma, including en bloc tumor resection with wide operative margins and limb salvage, provides lower rates of local recurrence than has been previously reported. In the present study, the limb preservation rate was 84 percent (fifty-nine of seventy), and the survival rate was 87.2 percent at ten years. The rate of complications related to the limb reconstruction was high.
