Summary

This paper describes a gluteal approach to the ischium which facilitates a good exposure of the whole region from the lower part of the ischium to the pubic ramus and allows extensive resections and partial hip reconstruction if necessary. The approach is demonstrated as used in two cases — one benign (desmoplastic fibroma) and one malignant tumor (chondrosarcoma).

Zusammenfassung

Es wird über einen glutaealen Zugang zum Os ischii berichtet, der eine gute Übersicht über das gesamte Sitzbein gewährleistet und somit auch unfangreiche Resektionen und Becken-Teilersatz-Operationen möglich macht. Der Zugang wird geschildert und anhand von zwei Fall-Beispielen in seiner klinischen Anwendbarkeit demonstriert.
