Core Tip

Core tip: Dislocation after wide excision and reconstruction with nonvascularized fibular graft on giant cell tumor (GCT) distal radius often occur and becomes a problem for the patient. This case report presented the outcome of a patient with GCT of distal radius and treated with wide excision and nonvascularized fibular graft with the addition of non-absorbable polypropylene hernia mesh. Circumferential non-absorbable polypropylene hernia mesh may prevent the occurrence of dislocation and provides an excellent functional outcome.
