Mobile applications offer enormous opportunities for dealing with challenges in public health, and their number increases every day. This paper aims to review the existing literature on mobile applications in orthopaedic oncology and to summarize the current mobile applications for musculoskeletal tumors. A systematic literature review was conducted regarding articles on mobile applications in orthopaedic and trauma surgery. The focus was on identifying mobile applications that can be used in the treatment of patients with musculoskeletal tumors. Two reviewers independently assessed study eligibility, extracted data, and appraised methodological quality. In addition, the Apple App Store and Google Play Store were searched for suitable mobile applications. Ninety-one articles describing a mobile application in orthopaedic and trauma surgery were identified. Three articles focused on a mobile application for musculoskeletal tumors. Additionally, seven mobile applications were available in the App\/Play Stores dealing with bone or soft tissue tumors in orthopaedic oncology without corresponding scientific articles. Increasing numbers of mobile applications are being developed in orthopaedic and trauma surgery. Currently, only three scientific articles on mobile applications in orthopaedic oncology are present, yet several more applications are available without scientific medical evaluation. Since mobile applications can facilitate the everyday life of orthopaedic and trauma surgeons, it is worthwhile to be aware of new developments in this field. A regular scientific evaluation of the subject is important in order to classify the significance of these applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10916-021-01774-z","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,10]],"date-time":"2021-10-10T22:42:34Z","timestamp":1633905754000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["The Use of Mobile Applications for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Tumors in Orthopaedic Oncology \u2013 a Systematic Review"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"45","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4952-8271","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"J.","family":"Berger-Groch","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"M.","family":"Keitsch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"A.","family":"Reiter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"S.","family":"Weiss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"KH.","family":"Frosch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"M.","family":"Priemel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"1774_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"274","DOI":"10.12968\/hmed.2019.80.5.274","volume":"80","author":"B Al-Obaidi","year":"2019","unstructured":"Al-Obaidi, B., Babu, S., Al-Hadithy, N., Smartphones in orthopaedics: a decade of innovation.
