Abstract

|
|
|
A giant cell tumor (GCT) of the distal radius is not common. Curettage with bone cementation is considered as a treatment of choice but, in the case of recurrence, marked cortical disruption, or articular invasion, en bloc excision and reconstruction with proximal fibular bone graft is usual procedure. In reconstruction of en bloc resected distal radius which had recurred GCT after conservative operation, we used the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) liner with intramedullary rod and bone cement, because the contamination was extent in previous operation and recurrence after fibular bone graft was fearful. This article introduce our new surgical procedure.
