Free microvascular fibula transfer is an established method for reconstruction of the distal radius following tumour resection. If the radial articular surface is resected, fixation of the fibula to the carpus is either performed as a complete wrist fusion, or the fibular head is transferred together with the shaft to replace the radial joint surface, thus allowing some wrist mobility but providing only limited wrist stability. Fibulo-scapho-lunate fusion represents an alternative. This reconstruction in two patients provided excellent wrist stability and a functional range of midcarpal motion.

We report five cases of nonunion of the distal radius. There were three women and two men. The mean age was 44 years (range, 34–56). All five patients were heavy tobacco smokers and three had a history of alcohol abuse. In three patients, union of the distal radius was obtained. Two had a persistent nonunion which was salvaged with a total wrist fusion.
