[Three-dimensional correction of the thoraco-lumbar spine after sarcoma resection : An inter-disciplinary approach with free-tissue transfer].
Der Unfallchirurg 2016 November
This article presents the case of a high-grade deformity of the thoraco-lumbar spine. The patient suffered from a sarcoma that was radically resected. Due to adjuvant radiation, the patient suffered from a radiation injury with chronic fistula. In a two-stage approach, the deformity was corrected by a closing-wedge osteotomy of L3 with elongation of the present dorsal spondylodesis (Th10-L4) to Th8 and the iliac bone. Soft-tissue reconstruction was achieved by a free latissimus dorsi flap that was anastomosed to an axillary arterio-venous loop. The presented interdisciplinary approach allowed an almost complete correction of the deformity and stable soft-tissue coverage.
