Abstract
A patient with multiply recurrent giant cell reparative granuloma of the third metacarpal is reported. Three prior excisions failed to prevent recurrence. A wide resection and replacement with a nonvascularized fibular bone graft resulted in elimination of the tumor at the 7-year follow-up visit.
