Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Endoprosthetic reconstruction is the preferred approach for limb salvage surgery for many patients following malignant bone tumor resection. Implant failure is a common complication, however, there are no reliable means with which to offer patient-specific survival estimations. Implant survival predictions can set patient expectations and may guide treatment planning. This study aims to test and compare machine-learning models for the prediction of early tumor endoprosthetic implant survival.
