Tumors of the proximal fibula are rare. Wide resection includes adjacent knee-stabilizing structures. Unlike treatment of traumatic disruption of the lateral ligamentous structures of the knee, wide resection of the fibular head for a tumor may not require reconstruction. After 1–4 years of follow-up, function was satisfactory in 6 consecutive cases where resection of the fibular head was done without ligamentous reconstruction.Downloads
