Giant Cell Tumour of Proximal Phalanx of Ring Finger: Case Report and Review of Literature
نویسندگان
چکیده
Giant cell tumour (GCT) of bone arising from a phalanx of a finger is extremely rare. Only two percent of all reported GCTs are found in the hand, which show a higher rate of recurrence as compared to those occurring at a more proximal location. Here we report a rare case of giant cell tumour of proximal phalanx of the ring finger in a 20-year-old male, which was treated with extended curettage and bone grafting. After two years of follow-up, the patient was asymptomatic with complete functional recovery and no signs of recurrence.

Objective: Patella is a sesamoid bone which develops in the quadriceps tendon. It is an uncommon site for neoplasms. The most common primary tumors which involve patella are benign. These include chondroblastoma, giant cell tumor (GCT) and aneurysmal bone cyst. Malignant lesions are less common in patella. These encompass metastasis, osteosarcoma and hemangioendothelioma. The most common compla...
متن کاملMultiple Giant-cell Tumour of Bone
The occurrence of more than one giant-cell tumour of bone in the same person (that is, the appearance of the tumour otherwise than as a solitary lesion) is so unusual that one accepts only with great hesitation an apparent instance of this; such a case must be carefully scrutinised to eliminate hyperparathyroidism. Jaffe (1958) observed a case ofgiant-cell tumour involving the lower end of an u...
