Comparison of two methods of reconstruction for primary malignant tumors at the knee: A sequential cohort study

The purpose of this study was to compare the complications and functional outcome associated with the use of an irradiated allograft‐implant composite or a bone‐ingrowth modular tumor prosthesis for replacement of the knee joint after resection of a bone sarcoma from the distal femur or proximal tibia.
