Total femur prosthesis (TFP) can be used in both oncological and prosthetic revision surgery. A retrospective analysis of 32 patients receiving a TFP at a single Center between 2002 and 2018 was performed. The average follow-up was 60 months. Revision implant free survival (RIFS) of the implants was 87% at 5 and 10 years and 72% at 15 years. Overall implant survival (OIS) of the prosthesis was 90% at 5, 10 and 15 years. Complications observed: two soft tissue failures, two infection failure and one tumor progression failure.
