Giant Cell Tumor of Tendon Sheath
Background: Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath (GCTTS) is often thought of as a volar finger mass. We hypothesized that GCTTS are equally common on the dorsal and volar aspects of the hand. In addition, we hypothesized that there are no factors associated with the location (volar versus dorsal) and largest measured dimension of a GCTTS. Methods: A total of 126 patients with a pathological dia...
متن کاملAn Unusual Presentation of Giant Cell Arteritis
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a chronic vasculitis that typically presents with headache, fever and polymyalgia although atypical presentations are known. We present a case of GCA with nonproductive cough and pyrexia of unknown origin emphasizing this atypical nature of presentation. We report a rare association of GCA with granulomatous hepatitis. We also support the use of PET scanning in dia...

In this report, we describe a tumor of the greater wing of left sphenoid bone. Case presentation: A 31-year-old female was presented with headache, proptosis and diplopia of her left eye.

متن کاملGiant Cell Tumor of Bone - an Overview
Giant Cell tumors (GCT) are benign tumors with potential for aggressive behavior and capacity to metastasize. Although rarely lethal, benign bone tumors may be associated with a substantial disturbance of the local bony architecture that can be particularly troublesome in peri-articular locations. Its histogenesis remains unclear. It is characterized by a proliferation of mononuclear stromal ...
متن کاملGiant cell myocarditis: an unusual presentation.
Giant cell myocarditis is a rare but often devastating disease affecting young, otherwise healthy individuals. Patients often die of heart failure and ventricular arrhythmia unless cardiac transplantation is performed. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with or without cardiac biopsy can be helpful in making the correct diagnosis and ensuring that correct timely treatment is administered.
