During the operation: The procedure involves removing the tumorous portion of the bone, filling the resulting cavity with wires and bone cement, and applying a titanium plate.
Post-surgery: The procedure involves filling the cavity created after removal of the tumorous portion of the bone with wires and bone cement, followed by the application of titanium plates.
