The main scientific achievements are related to the establishment of biomechanical and medical solutions in paediatric orthopaedic oncological problems. Therefore we created a periacetabular 3d scaffold as biological reactor for remodelling this region after tumor resection. Also we developped an intramedullary nail for a special problem in fibrous dysplasia around the hip and we participated at a phase II randomized double blind placebo controlled study to assess safety tolerability and efficacy of MCS1120 on tumor size in patients with pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS). Further my reasearch group published about different paediatric and oncological orthopaedic operative procedures and their outcomes (imb lengthening and extracorporeal irradiation).
