abstract：PURPOSE:Limb salvage in bone sarcomas requires resection and joint and soft-tissue reconstruction. Suboptimal coverage can lead to prosthesis infection, subsequent hardware exposure, or loss with eventual amputation. In the pediatric sarcoma population, it is essential to not only have viable soft-tissue coverage but o...
