  • TREATMENT OF PROXIMAL HUMERAL DEFECT DUE TO BONE TUMOR BY USE OF NONINTERNAL FIXATION FIBULARAUTOGRAFT

    Objective To study the reparative and reconstructive for proximal humerus defect due to the excision of bone tumor with noninternal fixation non-vascularised fibular autografts. Methods From June 1991 toDecember 2003, 26 non-vascularised fibular grafts were used as substitutes for repair and reconstruction after resection for bone tumors on proximal humerus. Fifteen cases were given curettage and fibular supporting internal fixation, the other 11 cases were given tumor resection and joint reconstruction with proximal fibular graft. The age ranged from 6 to 41 years. Out of 26 patients, 5 had giant cell tumor, 9 had bone cysts, 8 had fibrous dysplasia and 4 had enchondroma. Results Twenty-six patients were followed up from 1 to 12 years (3.4 years on average). Local recurrence was found in 2 cases, and 1 of them died of lung metastasis. Both outlook and function of the reconstructed joints have good results in 15 proximal humeral joint surface reserved cases. Of them, 3 children gained normal shoulder function 3 weeks after operation. Part function were obtained in the other 11 fibular grafts substituted proximal humeral defect. Conclusion Non-vascularised fibular grafts is an appropriate treatment option for proximal humerus bone defect due to excision of bone tumor.
