Abstract The fibula is an expandable bone some benign bone tumors as the GCT & ABC, which are known for their relative high incidence of local recurrence can be treated by excision of this bone. Resection of the tumors of the proximal fibula entails scarification of the common peroneal nerve to obtain an adequate margin. Other important structure are the lateral stabilizing structures of the knee. Throughout the literature several authors stress on the benefit of repairing the sacrificed lateral stabilizers, others showed equivalent outcome without the need for reconstruction. |
