Osteosarcoma, a primary bone malignancy, predominantly affects children and adolescents. It arises from primitive bone-forming mesenchymal cells, presenting as aggressive bone tumors. The most common sites include the long bones, particularly around the knee. Diagnostic tools encompass imaging techniques revealing characteristic bone destruction and potential metastases. Treatment typically involves a multimodal approach combining surgery and chemotherapy, with advancements improving survival rates. However, challenges persist in managing metastatic and recurrent cases, warranting ongoing research for more effective therapies. We will present the case of a patient treated in our clinic with surgical wide resection for a massive osteosarcoma, followed by reconstruction using a vascularized fibula autograft and latissimus dorsi flap.
