OBJECTIVE: To evaluate curettage plus cement reconstruction in the treatment of @entity2967 ( @entity2967 ) of limbs. METHODS: 125 @entity1 with @entity2967 of limbs were treated with curettage plus cement reconstruction. They were 62 @entity1 and 63 @entity1 aged from 12 to 71 years, 101 @entity1 had primary @entity2967 and 24 had recurrence of @entity2967 . The recurrence at the knee was noted in 100 @entity1 (80%). RESULTS: 125 @entity1 were followed-up for 96 months (range 13 - 194 months). The recurrence rate was 12.7% in the primary group and 10.3% in the recurrent group. Two @entity1 were infected. Joint functions were excellent. CONCLUSIONS: Curettage plus cement reconstruction is safe and effective in treating local @entity2967 of limbs. The key the method is aggressive curettage of the lesion via a bone window. Cement is adjuvant therapy only.
