Reconstruction using custom-made implants represents the treatment of choice. This study was conducted to analyze treatment outcomes of custom-made implants in a single orthopaedic tumor center. Patients and Methods Twenty patients with a histologically verified periacetabular malignancy and a median follow up time of 5 (1\u201317) years were included. Results The median number of revision surgeries per patient was 1.5 (0\u20137). Complications were dislocations in 3 patients, aseptic loosening in 4 patients, deep infections in 9 patients, thromboembolic events in 5 patients and sciatic nerve lesions in 4 patients. Overall survival was 77% after one year, 69% after two years and 46% after five years. Median Harris Hip Score was 81 (37\u201392) points at last follow up. Conclusion Although internal hemipelvectomy and reconstruction using custom-made implants is linked with a high risk of postoperative complications, good functional outcomes can be regularly achieved. This information may help treating surgeons to find adequate indications, as eligible patients need to be critically selected and integrated into the decision-making process.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jpm11080683","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,21]],"date-time":"2021-07-21T11:53:23Z","timestamp":1626868403000},"page":"683","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Patient-Specific Implants for Pelvic Tumor Resections"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5982-5750","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kevin","family":"D\u00f6ring","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Orthopaedics, Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, 1090 Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kevin","family":"Staats","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Orthopaedics, Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, 1090 Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephan","family":"Puchner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Orthopaedics, Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, 1090 Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6321-1804","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reinhard","family":"Windhager","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Orthopaedics, Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, Medical University of Vienna, 1090 Vienna, Austria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"311","DOI":"10.1007\/s002640000197","article-title":"Pelvic limb-salvage surgery for malignant tumors","volume":"24","author":"Pant","year":"2001","journal-title":"Int.
