CLINICAL APPLICATION OF THE MODULAR ENDOSYSTEM CONSTRUCTION OF KNEE JOINT, DISTAL PART OF FEMUR AND PROXIMAL PART OF TIBIA

Abstract

Aim of the study. To explore the remote results of reconstructive operations on replacement of post-resection defects of
articular ends of tubular bones, forming knee joint, with the help of different local and foreign endoprosthesis constructions.
To develop recommendations to creation of the new modular endosystem construction of knee joint, distal part of femur and
proximal part of tibia on the base of the given data. Materials and methods. More than 300 operations on knee joint, distal part of femur and proximal part of tibia endoprosthetics
with the usage of Sivash K.M. implants in modification of Zatsepin S.T., Kotsa, Beznoska, Stanmore, Finn, GMRS have
been done in the Department of Bone Pathology of adults. The results of the clinical application of these constructions, mainly
endoprosthesis «survival», were analyzed. Results. The modular endosystem of knee joint CITO-MATI, formed by titanic alloys, according to developed technologies,
successfully passed the circle of technical and medical tests and was applied to the batch production. Common functional
results and complications risk correspond in general with the best international data of the usage of new oncological and
modular endoprosthesis in last years. Conclusions. Application of the new modular endosystem will allow to improve the treatment results and life quality of patients
with bone tumors and tumor-like bone diseases of bones, forming knee joint.
