Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the distal radius is a rare and unpredictable lesion. The aim of treatment is complete removal of the tumor and preservation of the maximum function of the extremity. Lower rates of local recurrence have been noted after wide resection of the diseased bone. Its standard treatment has ranged from surgical curettage to wide resection. One method for closing the defect is using the head of the fibula as a substitute for the distal radius. The healing of vascularized fibular graft is very quick and without bone resorption. Thus, in the procedure for reconstruction and limb salvage after bone tumor resection of the distal radius, the free vascularized fibular graft with the fibular head is an ideal substitute. This case report will show a patient with GCT that successfully treated by an excision of GCT followed by reconstruction of distal radius using free vascularized fibular graft.

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. Keywords: Giant cell tumor of bone; distal radius; en-bloc excision; translocation; ipsilateral ulna; wrist arthrodesis
