PROXIMAL HUMERUS RECONSTRUCTION AFTER TUMOR RESECTION: ENDOPROSTHESIS IMPLANT FOR ELDERLY PATIENTS.

Humeral reconstruction post tumor resection is a challenging quest. Reconstruction strategies depend first of all on age and general conditions of the patient, tumor dimensions, local invasion and bone quality. Many kinds of surgery are described in literature, mostly megaprosthesis, hemiartoplasty...
