COMPLICATIONS OF ENDOPROSHETICS FOR BONE TUMORS IN CHILDREN
The study was conducted in order to improve the quality of life of children with bone sarcomas who underwent endoprosthetics. It is important not only to achieve survival, but also to improve the quality of life of children who have undergone aggressive complex treatment for bone sarcomas.

Currently, 2 patients have died from metastases and disease progression, 19 are alive and in remission. In 10 cases, mechanical and infectious complications of endoprosthetics developed, local recurrence was noted in two patients. Organ-preserving treatment by endoprosthetics is a priority in pediatric oncoortopedia, significantly improving the quality of life of patients, which is of great importance from deontological and social positions. The most common complications are observed after endoprosthetics of the даются после эндопротезирования проксимального отдела большеберцовой кости, среди которых наиболее неблагоприятны инфекционные.
