DISTAL RADIUS RECONSTRUCTION USING FIBULAR GRAFTS
Keyword(s):
Giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone is a locally aggressive tumor of bone. GCT involving the distal radius poses certain unique challenges in management. The resection of the tumor will almost always end up requiring a reconstructive procedure of the joint, for which several different methods of reconstruction have been explored. We present a case of a 29 year old lady with distal radius GCT. We performed a wide resection of the tumor, reconstructed the distal radius with free bula graft and did a wrist arthrodesis using locking compression plate. We found that it provided a stable, painless wrist joint and good functional outcome.
