Three-dimensional (3D) printing has been widely utilized for treating the tumors of bone and soft tissue. We herewith report a unique case of distal radial osteosarcoma who was treated with a 3D printed porous tantalum prosthesis.Patient concerns: A 58-year-old Chinese male patient presented to our clinic complaining about a 6-month history of a progressive pain at his right hand, associated with a growing lump 2 months later.
Osteosarcoma of distal radius confirmed by percutaneous biopsy and tumor biopsy.
A limb-salvage surgery was performed with a 3D printed porous tantalum prosthesis, combined with the postoperative chemotherapy for 4 cycles.
At 2-year follow-up, complete pain relief and satisfactory functional recovery of his right wrist were observed.
Personalized 3D printed prosthesis is an effective and feasible method for treating the osteosarcoma and reconstruction of complex bone defects.
三维（3D）打印已广泛应用于治疗骨和软组织肿瘤。我们在此报告 1 例采用 3D 打印多孔钽假体治疗桡骨远端骨肉瘤的独特病例。
1 名 58 岁中国男性患者因右手进行性疼痛就诊于我科，2 个月后出现肿块。
经皮活检和肿瘤活检证实为桡骨远端骨肉瘤。
行保肢手术，采用 3D 打印多孔钽假体，术后联合化疗 4 个周期。
随访 2 年，患者右腕完全缓解疼痛，功能恢复满意。
个性化 3D 打印假体是治疗骨肉瘤和复杂骨缺损重建的有效且可行的方法。
