ABSTRACT
Techniques for repair of chest wall, abdominal wall, and diaphragm have been well described, but simultaneous repair of defects involving each of these three areas after tumor ablation provides the surgeon with a difficult technical problem. Repair of a large defect with two polytetrafluorethylene patches after resection of an osteosarcoma invading the lower chest wall, abdominal wall, and diaphragm is described.
