抄録

9 cases of giant cell tumor of the lower end of the radius were treated in our clinic past 20 years.
Follow up data were obtained by 7 cases of these patients. The procedures for removal of the tumors were curettage and bone-grafting or resection and bone-grafting.
4 cases were treated by primary curettage and bone-grafting.
3 of these cases required resection of the recurrent lesion and bone-grafting.
3 cases weres treated by primary resection and bone-grafting. There was no recurrence in these 3 cases. The roentgenographic findings and histological features were not of prognostic value for recurrence.
According to these results, we emphasized that the distal portion of the radius could be supplanted successfully by the proximal end of the fibula.
