Abstract

Introduction: Primary bone cancer, particularly osteosarcoma, is commonly seen in young individuals and requires radical tumor resection surgery for effective treatment. Limb-sparing surgery is the current trend, in which the use of personalized 3D-printed cutting guides combined with recycled autograft bone using liquid nitrogen offers numerous benefits. Method and material: We report a case of a 32-year-old female patient diagnosed with distal femoral osteosarcoma, treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by limb-sparing surgery using a 3D-printed cutting guide and pedicle frozen tumor-bearing bone technique. Results: After 12 months of follow-up, the patient showed good recovery, stable graft incorporation, and no signs of recurrence. Conclusion: This approach enhances surgical precision, preserves the patient’s native bone structure, and reduces complications, presenting a promising direction in bone cancer treatment.
