pubmed:abstractText |
Patients can be provided with a functional above-knee amputation stump when the tumor is not resectable. In order to do this and still remove the entire upper end of the femur a small Austin-Moore prosthesis with drill holes is inserted and enclosed in long anterior and posterior flaps. Muscle attachments are sutured into the distal stem to obtain the balance between abduction and extension of a functional stump.
