From 1979, a total of 5 cases of giant cell tumor of the lower end of radius were treated by segmental resection, and vascularized fibular head transplantation, and reconstruction of the inferior radio-ulnar joint. The bone healed within 2-3 months. The patients were followed for 5-10 years. There was no recurrence, nor distant metastasis, and the functional recovery of extremities was satisfactory.The clinical materials, the operative techniques and the assessment of the long-term results were introduced.
