Their mean age was 50 years (11 to 86) and the mean follow-up period was 37.3 months (1 to 204). A total of 35 (16.6%) prostheses failed. Overall, implant survival was 78% (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.29 to 0.54) at five years, 60% (95% CI 0.93 to 2.35) at ten years and 60% (95% CI 1.27 to 3.88) at 15 years. Survivorship of the limb was 97.6% (95% CI 1.73 to 3.35) at ten years. The gender, age, diagnosis and location of the tumour were not prognostic variables for failure. Modular endoprosthetic replacement in the lower limb is a durable long-term reconstructive option, with the implants generally outlasting the patient. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.88b6.17519","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,23]],"date-time":"2006-05-23T19:08:33Z","timestamp":1148411313000},"page":"790-795","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":177,"title":["Survivorship and clinical outcome of modular endoprosthetic reconstruction for neoplastic disease of the lower limb"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"88-B","author":[{"given":"E.
