Аннотация
BACKGROUND: : Fitting a femoral prosthesis in a transfemoral amputee with a very short amputation stump is challenging. This case report aimed to introduce an effective and simple method that can preserve the residual limb length by the implantation of antibiotic-loaded bone cement for the treatment of a patient with femoral periprosthetic infection.
CASE: : A 30-year-old man who had osteosarcoma at the age of 13 years underwent transfemoral amputation 17 years after the initial surgery because of periprosthetic infection. Antibiotic-loaded bone cement was inserted into the infected bone marrow to control the residual infection and to preserve the stump length. The infection resolved, and the patient regained functional gait using a femoral prosthesis.
DISCUSSION: : This case report demonstrates the usefulness of antibiotic-loaded cement in preserving the length of residual limbs and for femoral prosthesis fitting after periprosthetic infection. Maintaining the residual bone length is crucial in amputees for the functional fitting of femoral prostheses. The use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement has potential as a simple and useful surgical option in amputees after periprosthetic infection.
