Abstract
Megaprostheses are one of the preferred choices of reconstruction after tumor resection. Periprosthetic joint infections are one of the most serious complications of joint prostheses surgeries. In this study, our aim was to analyze the efficacy of silver-coated megaprostheses in reducing the risk of prosthesis-related infection.
