Expert surgeons perform a tumor resection of the distal femur on a 17-year-old boy with high-grade osteosarcoma. The session covers diagnostic imaging, treatment protocols, and reconstruction options, including modular prostheses and allografts. Key surgical techniques focus on tumor approach, anatomical considerations, and nerve preservation. The importance of experience, infection prevention, and post-surgery care is highlighted, along with the need for early mobilization and physiotherapy for rehabilitation.
