  • Title: Giant solitary osteochondroma of the proximal humerus treated by resection and fibular autograft reconstruction.
    Author: Gebhart M, Vadoud Seyedi J, Lejeune F.
    Journal: Acta Orthop Belg; 1991; 57(4):447-51. PubMed ID: 1772025.
    Abstract:
    A giant solitary osteochondroma of the proximal humerus in a 9-year-old boy was widely resected. Reconstruction of the bone defect was achieved with two nonvascularized fibula segments which gave sufficient stability to the proximal humerus and yielded rapid bone remodeling into an almost normal cortical bone after six months.
