Implication

Systematic review evaluates intraoperative navigation and 3D printed prostheses affecting complications in knee and leg tumor surgeries, suggesting enhanced outcomes.

Key Points

MAIN FINDING: Technological advances in tumor resections may reduce complication rates without sacrificing MSTS scores.
KEY EVIDENCE: Average complication rates were 11.9% for 3D prostheses, 16.4% for navigation, and 32.7% for conventional techniques.
APPROACH: A systematic review analyzed 40 studies involving 606 patients and assessed MSTS scores and complications.
SIGNIFICANCE: Findings indicate that innovations in orthopaedic oncology can improve surgical outcomes for musculoskeletal tumors.
