background: giant cell tumor is a benign but locally aggressive bone neoplasm which uncommonly involves the skull. giant cell tumor (gct) of the sphenoid bone is relatively rare. 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. cranial magnetic resonance ima...

Giant Cell Tumours Of Tendon Sheath (GCTTS) are the second most frequent soft tissue tumours affecting the hand with an overall incidence of 1 in 50,000 individuals. These tumours are usually localized and solitary, with multiple GCTTS occurring rarely. Multi-centric origin is considered unusual and very few cases of multiple GCTTS have been reported till date. Here, we report a rare case of a ...

giant cell carcinoma of the endometrium is a rare and an aggressive tumor that should be distinguished from other endometrial tumors with a prominent giant cell component, including trophoblastic tumors, certain primary sarcomas, and malignant mixed müllerian tumors. at present, cumulative data on this rare histological variant is limited and the prognostic significance of the presence and the ...

Giant cell tumors deriving from synovium are classified into a localized (GCT of tendon sheath; GCT-TS) and diffuse form (diffuse-type GCT, Dt-GCT). We propose a multidisciplinary management based upon a systematic review and authors' opinion. Open excision for GCT-TS and open synovectomy (plus excision) for Dt-GCT is advised to reduce the relatively high recurrence risk. External beam radiothe...

Introduction Giant-cell tumour of the tendon sheath is a solitary, firm, extraarticular localized, benign, soft tissue tumour that usually presents with painless swelling for several years. Aetiology of the disease is unknown. It is a relatively rare soft tissue tumour, an overall incidence is 1 in 50,000 individuals and usually affects people between 30 to 50 years. It is more often seen in wo...
