Abstract

 The distal radius is frequently affected by primary bone tumors, and is a
common site for occurrence of giant cell tumor. Giant cell tumor at the
distal end of the radius can be treated by various methods. Small lesion can be
treated by curettage and filling bone defect by autogenous bone graft or
allograft, or bone cement. Large lesion that involved articular surface can be
treated by wide resection and reconstruction with osteoarticular graft from
proximal fibular. This report presents a 42 year-old lady that was treated with
osteoarticular fibular graft for her recurrent distal radius giant cell tumor.
