Introduction
Osteosarcoma → the 2nd common malignant bone tumors after multiple myeloma → 19%
(Dahlin’s bone tumors general aspects and data on 11,087 cases.1996. pp.143-95)
Before 1970s
→ the routine management was amputations or disarticulation
→ survival rate 10-20%
Local status
Mass :
- 26 cm in circumferential length (20 cm in the health tissue)
- Firm, tenderness, fixed with ill-defined margin
Laboratory
- CBC : normal
- ESR : 29mm/h
- SAP : 161 u/l (40 – 150)
- LDH : 303 u/m (230–460)
Cytology examination :
Spindle cells, pleomorphic with osteoid positif

First Stage :
- Resection of the half distal humerus that contain tumor mass → Pathology
Anatomy Department
- Osteotomy of olecranon
- Conservation of n.radial, n.ulnar & muscle groups, except the part of the triceps
& brachialis attached to the tumor mass
- The resected humerus was sent to BATAN for irradiation with dose 30,000 rads
Second Stage :
- Reconstruction of the half distal humerus with plate and screw
- Olecranon fixation with TBW
- Sutured common flexor & extensor origins to the original sites
SECOND CASE
Local Status :
Mass :
Laboratory
- CBC : normal
- ESR 30 mm/h
- SAP 192 u/l (40–150)
- LDH : 165 u/m (230–460)
Second Stage :
- Reconstruction of the half distal humerus and elbow by fixed them into the
proximal shaft with plate and screw
- Common flexor and extensor origins were sutered again to the original sites
Discussion
- Primary malignant bone tumors → rare lesions
- Before 1970s → routine management was consisted of transbone amputations or disarticulation

Development of :
- Effective chemotherapeutic agents
- CT and MRI
- Allow precise visualization of the anatomic location of
tumor and surrounding structures
- Better patient selection for spesific treatment of limb
