Abstract

Twenty-two patients with primary tumors of the sacrum were surgically treated between 1983 and 1997. Seventeen male and 5 female patients were followed up for a mean of 53.6 months (range 12-203 months). The histopathologic diagnoses were giant cell tumor (GCT) in 7 patients, chordoma in 4 patients, aneurysmal bone tumor in 3 patients, chondrosarcoma in 2 patients, osteoblastoma in 2 patients, synovial sarcoma in 2 patients, Ewing's sarcoma in 1 patient, and simple bone cyst in 1 patient. Currettage and thermo- or chemocauterization was applied to 8 patients, a subtotal sacrectomy was done in 11 patients, and total sacrectomy and lumbopelvic stabilization was done in 3 patients. The surgical margins were wide in all patients with GCT. The surgical margins were wide in 3 patients and wide contaminated in 1 patient with chordoma. The 2 patients with chondrosarcoma had high sacral lesions and were managed with total sacrectomy and lumbopelvic fixation. The surgical margin was wide in 1 patient and wide contaminated in the other, who relapsed locally and systemically in the 30th postoperative month. Three patients with aggressive aneurysmal bone cyst and 1 patient with simple bone cyst were managed by curettage and thorough debride...Continue Reading
