Giant cell tumour of bone: Reconstruction of the index metacarpophalangeal joint with an osteochondral graft from the lateral femoral condyle

SummaryWe describe the successful reconstruction of the index finger metacarpophalangeal joint with an osteochondral autograft from the lateral femoral condyle following failed curettage and cementation of a giant cell tumour of the proximal phalanx base. At the 2-year follow-up, a good functional outcome was noted with 0–80° range of motion of the metacarpophalangeal joint and no clinical or radiographic evidence of tumour recurrence.
