摘      要：AIM:To review outcomes following usage of the Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System(LARS?)in shoulder ***:Medical records of nineteen patients(19 shoulders)that underwent tumor excisional procedure and reconstruction with the LARS synthetic fabric,were retrospectively ***:Patients’median age was 58 years old,while the median length of resection was 110 mm(range 60-210 mm).Compared to immediate post-operative radiographs,the prosthesis mean end-point position migrated superiorly at a mean follow up period of 26 mo(P=0.002).No statistical significant correlations between the prosthesis head size(P=0.87);the implant stem body length(P=0.949);and the length of resection(P=0.125)with the position of the head,were found at last follow *** cases of radiological dislocation were noted but only one was clinically symptomatic.A minor superficial wound dehiscence,healed without surgery,*** was no evidence of aseptic loosening either,and no prosthetic ***:LARS?use ensured stability of the shoulder following endoprosthetic reconstruction in most patients.
