Description for Pediatric Bone Sarcomas
Paperback. This book addresses malignant bone tumours by focusing upon physeal distraction (epiphysiolysis) before excision. This technique has long been used by the authors of this book in preserving the joint in metaphyseal bone tumours in children. Editor(s): Canadell, Jose; San-Julian, Mikel. Num Pages: 152 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MJCL; MJM; MJW; MNS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 243 x 148 x 8. Weight in Grams: 300.
Sparing of the growth plate is an early feature of diaphyseal and meta-diaphyseal osteosarcoma. Capitalising on this characteristic, Jose Canadell has developed an innovative technique to preserve the epiphysis while resecting primary bone malignancies lying adjacent to the growth plate of skeletally immature patients. Using external ? xation devices, controlled distraction of the epiphysis from the growth plate permits iatrogenic separation of the epiphysis from the affected region. Subsequent resection is enhanced by a safe distal margin and Canadell's local control rates attest to the success of the procedure as an oncologically sound technique. The Canadell technique has been developed ... Read more
