What is Ortho-Oncology Reconstruction?

What is Ortho-Oncology Reconstruction?

Ortho-oncology reconstruction is a surgical approach to restore anatomy and function after the removal of bone tumors or soft tissue sarcomas. This complex process often involves reconstructive procedures that blend orthopedic oncology and plastic surgery. The goal is to preserve limbs, maintain movement, and restore cosmetic appearance while ensuring the oncological safety of the patient. It is an integral part of cancer-related orthopedic surgery.

Common Indications

  • Bone tumors such as osteosarcoma or Ewing's sarcoma often require reconstruction post-excision
  • Soft tissue sarcomas involving the extremities may need reconstructive flaps or grafts
  • Limb salvage surgery after tumor resection to avoid amputation
  • Reconstructive needs following failed orthopedic surgeries or infections in cancer cases

Techniques Used

  • Microsurgical free flaps for soft tissue coverage and functional restoration
  • Bone grafting or vascularized fibula grafts for bony continuity
  • Endoprosthesis or custom implants to restore joint and limb function
  • Composite tissue transfer for large, complex orthopedic oncologic defects

About the Surgery/Treatment

Dr. Saxena’s ortho-oncology reconstruction procedures for bone and soft tissue are precisely planned and executed using advanced microsurgical techniques.

Treatment Process

  • Initial oncological surgery is performed to remove the tumor with clear margins
  • Reconstructive surgery follows, tailored to the size, location, and type of defect
  • Microsurgical techniques are often used to transfer tissues or bone from donor sites
  • Surgery is conducted in collaboration with orthopedic onco-surgeons for optimal outcomes

Benefits of this Surgery

  • Preserves limb and functional mobility
  • Enhances quality of life after cancer surgery
  • Reduces the need for amputation in many cases
  • Improves cosmetic and psychosocial outcomes

What to Expect After Surgery

Post-Surgery

  • Hospital stay typically lasts a few days depending on procedure complexity
  • Drains and dressings are placed and monitored for proper wound healing
  • Limb immobilization or bracing may be needed initially
  • Physical therapy is usually started within the first week post-surgery

Recovery Milestones

  • Pain and swelling typically reduce gradually within 2–3 weeks with proper care.
  • Sutures or staples are removed in 10–14 days if not dissolvable
  • Most patients regain significant function within 6–12 weeks
  • Long-term rehabilitation helps improve strength and mobility

Follow-Up Care

Consistent follow-up is key to a successful recovery and long-term durability of the reconstruction.

Follow-up Schedule

  • First review within 7–10 days after discharge
  • Regular follow-ups scheduled every 2–4 weeks for 3 months
  • Long-term follow-ups every 3–6 months for surveillance and recovery
  • Imaging and blood tests may be advised periodically to monitor healing progress closely.

Follow-Up Care

  • Dressing changes and wound inspections
  • Guidance on exercises and physical therapy regimes for optimal functional recovery
  • Scar care advice and evaluation of graft/flap healing and tissue integration
  • Oncological monitoring to check for recurrence signs and overall treatment progress

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Ortho-oncology reconstruction is a surgical process used to restore bone and soft tissue structures after cancer-related surgeries. It helps maintain limb function, preserve appearance, and improve overall quality of life. It is commonly performed after bone tumor excision or soft tissue sarcoma removal.

    Limb salvage surgery is often possible thanks to advanced microsurgical and reconstructive techniques. Dr. Bharat Saxena evaluates each case carefully with orthopedic oncologists to determine if reconstruction can safely replace amputation.

    The initial recovery usually takes about 6–8 weeks, with complete healing and functional recovery continuing over 3–6 months. This varies depending on the extent of surgery, type of reconstruction used, and patient condition.

    While complete restoration depends on multiple factors, most patients regain significant mobility and function. Physical therapy plays a vital role in achieving optimal outcomes. Reconstructed limbs can offer a good quality of life, often comparable to pre-treatment levels.

    Dr. Saxena combines extensive reconstructive expertise with a deep understanding of oncologic surgery, making him one of the best ortho-onco surgeons in Mumbai.
