Limb-Sparing Resection and Reconstruction for Sarcoma

How Limb-Sparing Resection and Reconstruction for Sarcoma is performed

This surgery is performed under general anesthesia, and the resection and reconstruction plan is formulated based on preoperative MRI/CT and other imaging. Wide resection is usually performed according to oncological principles, trying to preserve major neurovascular structures; frozen section pathology is combined to assess margins when necessary. Subsequently, local or free flaps, skin grafts are selected according to the defect, or tendon/nerve/vascular reconstruction is performed, combined with internal fixation to protect function when necessary. Postoperative focus is on monitoring flap blood supply, bleeding and thrombosis risk, and early progressive rehabilitation training is carried out, with the goal of preserving limb function as much as possible on the basis of tumor control. The above is general health information and not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
