Repair of a multiply recurrent giant cell reparative granuloma of the hand with wide resection and fibular grafting.
Overview
abstract
A patient with multiply recurrent giant cell reparative granuloma of the third metacarpal is reported. Three prior excisions failed to prevent recurrence. A wide resection and replacement with a nonvascularized fibular bone graft resulted in elimination of the tumor at the 7-year follow-up visit.
