A 14-year-old girl was admitted with a diagnosis of osteogenic sarcoma of the distal femur. Pre-operative chemotherapy was effective, and sclerosis of the lesion made clear the presence of a proximal femoral and pulmonary metastasis. Total femur and knee joint replacement with titanium alloy was made after a total resection of the femur. Her post-operative clinical course was excellent without local recurrence. Now, 14 months after the operation, she can walk without crutches. We wish to emphasize that the presence of a pulmonary metastasis is not absolutely a contraindication as long as the tumor appears surgically resectable and responsive to per-operative chemotherapy.
