About This Pelvic Sarcoma Study in Houston

This trial studies the development of patient-specific computational walking models to improve the surgical planning and rehabilitation treatment of patients with pelvic sarcomas. Every pelvis and pelvic sarcoma are different, and the orthopedic oncologist faces significant challenges when removing a tumor from the complex anatomy of the pelvis. These challenges make it difficult to achieve excellent oncological and functional outcomes together. Computational walking models may be used to predict the best combination of surgical methods and how to implement them to maximize each patient's post-surgery walking function.
