IntroductionAllograft-prosthesis composite reconstruction after resection of a primary bone tumor may have theoretical advantages, such as restoration of bone stock and soft tissue attachments. However, the reported results of APC of different anatomical sites differ widely. We conducted a meta-analysis to estimate the revision and infection rates associated with allograft-prosthesis composite (APC) reconstructions after resection of a primary bone tumor. We looked for variables, such as anatomic sites and irradiation of the allograft, associated with these outcomes.
