Reconstruction with double pedicel fibular graft and ankle arthrodesis for aggressive chondroblastoma in the distal tibia

Aggressive chondroblastoma of the distal tibia is rare, and below-knee amputation had been the standard surgical procedure. We reported an additional case and reviewed the existing literature. A 20-year-old man with a 2-month history of right ankle pain and swelling underwent distal tibia wide resec...

Zusammenfassung:Aggressive chondroblastoma of the distal tibia is rare, and below-knee amputation had been the standard surgical procedure. We reported an additional case and reviewed the existing literature. A 20-year-old man with a 2-month history of right ankle pain and swelling underwent distal tibia wide resection, double pedicle fibular, autogenous iliac bone graft, and ankle arthrodesis. He had no pain, no limitation in daily activities, and no evidence of local recurrence and infection; the Musculoskeletal Tumour Society Score (MSTS) is 86% at the final follow-up. Double pedicel fibular graft and ankle arthrodesis may be an effective and economical alternative method for aggressive chondroblastoma in the distal tibia.
