Use of Vacuum-Assisted Closure to Reduce the Likelihood of Wound Complications After Limb-Sparing Resection of Pediatric Primary Bone Sarcomas of the Femur

Limb-sparing surgery is the standard of care for primary bone tumors. However, such procedures are associated with high rates of wound complications, specifically in lower-extremity surgeries. Therefore, identifying and implementing interventions to minimize the likelihood of wound complications after limb-sparing resection of the lower extremity is crucial.
