description Rotationplasty has gained popularity for lower limb salvage in oncological resection in place of amputation. It provides more reliable and functional results, with overwhelming cosmetic concerns. We discuss the use of this functional and oncologically reliable technique for an 18-year-old male patient who presented with malignant spindle cell carcinoma. With a multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach and involvement of occupational therapy and rehabilitation, we achieved satisfactory results with no discernible impact on the social and emotional functioning of our patient.
