Abstract This study included 11 patients with lower limb tumors who had wide local resection
and reconstruction by vascularized fibula osteoseptocutaneous flap and their surgery
performed at least 24 months before the end of the study. The average age at operation was
14.4 years. All tumors, except one, were high-grade sarcomas (stage IIA, IIB, and Ewing's
