The distal radius is the third most common site of giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB). The local aggressive invasion of this rare neoplasm requires reconstructive solutions after wide excision. The authors present two cases of patients diagnosed with Campanacci grade III GCTB of the distal radius successfully treated with en-bloc excision and translocation of the ipsilateral ulna. Pre-operative application of denosumab was given for one year to both patients. At one year of follow-up, both patients are disease-free and reported satisfactory results on Quick - Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (Quick-DASH) questionnaire and modified Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score. Although a challenge, the reported procedure offers good oncological and functional outcomes.

Introduction: Surgical management of Giant Cell Tumor of Bone of the distal radius (GCTDR) remains controversial due to risk of local recurrence (LR) offset by functional limitations which result from en-bloc resection. This study aims to determine the oncologic and functional outcomes of wide excision (WE) vs intralesional curettage (IC) of GCTDR. Methods: A complete search of the applicable literature was done. Included studies reported on patients from the same cohort who were surgically treated for GCTDR with WE or IC. Two reviewers independently assessed all papers. The primary outcome measure was LR. Results: One-hundred-forty-one patients from six studies were included: 60 treated with WE, and 81 with IC. Five WE patients (8%) suffered LR whereas 25 IC patients (31%) did. The odds of LR were three times less in the WE group vs the IC group. MSTS1993 scores, where available, were on average 'good' with WE and 'excellent' with IC. Conclusions: Within statistical limitations the data support an attempt, where feasible, at wrist joint preservation and superior function with IC. Intralesional curettage is reasonable when the functional benefit outweighs the risk of recurrence as is the case in many cases of GCT of the distal radius.

It is commonly accepted that wide en bloc resection followed by reconstruction is essential in progressive lesions (Campanacci grade III) for local control of possible recurrence. However, specific grade III can be downgraded and treated with intralesional curettage to preserve better wrist function, without increasing the recurrency rates. In this report, Grade III giant cell tumor of the distal radius was successfully treated using vascularized osseous graft from the inner lip of the iliac bone in addition to downgrading strategy.
