The risk factors for periprosthetic infection of tumor prosthesis remain unclear. This study examines the risk factors and outcomes of periprosthetic infection. This was a retrospective observational study including 121 patients (67 males and 54 females) who underwent tumor prosthesis of the lower limb after resection of musculoskeletal tumors between 1 January 2000 and 30 November 2018. Among a total of 121 tumor prostheses, 7 were total femurs, 47 were proximal femurs, 47 were distal femurs, and 20 were proximal tibias. The incidence of postoperative infection and its risk factors were analyzed. Forty-five patients (37%) had osteosarcoma, 36 patients (30%) had bone metastasis, and 10 patients (8%) had soft-tissue tumors invading the bone. The mean operating time was 229 min, and the mean follow-up duration was 5.9 years. Deep periprosthetic infection was noted in 14 patients (12%). In the multivariate analysis, the risk factors for postoperative infection were identified as being male (hazard
ratio [HR], 11.2316; p = 0.0100), soft-tissue tumor (HR, 52.2443; p = 0.0003), long operation (HR, 1.0056; p = 0.0184), and radiotherapy (HR, 6.5683; p = 0.0476). The incidence of periprosthetic infection in our institution was similar to that of previous reports. Patients undergoing tumor prosthesis of the lower limb who were male, had a soft-tissue tumor, were predicted to have a long operation, and who underwent radiation, had an increased possibility of postoperative infection.. |
