Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath is a tumor, which affects mainly hands people aged 30 to 50 years with female prevalence. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) essential for diagnosis and treatment planning. The aim this study evaluate efficacy multiecho gradient-echoes (MeGE) sequence in detecting hemosiderin hallmark tumor. MRIs were performed sample 11 patients mean age 45. With proposed pr...

Giant cell tumour of the tendon sheath is a soft tissue mass found occasionally in the hand. Its diagnosis can be readily made preoperatively if the characteristic MRI features are appreciated. This pictorial essay demonstrates and describes the imaging findings correlated with histopathological findings in a group of patients with proven giant cell tumour of the tendon sheath.

Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath is a rare and benign soft-tissue tumor, which even less common in the pediatric population. It may be connected with chromosomal translocations, often 1p11-13. Symptoms include pain, swelling, palpable mass or limited range motion. Magnetic resonance diagnostic method choice. Histopathological image obtained from biopsy should also evaluated. The gold standard ...

Dear Editor, This is a case report of a male patient, 47 years of age, with a one-year history of an asymptomatic nodular mass on the left hallux. The patient reported gradual growth, with a rapid increase in size over the past two months. The dermatological examination revealed a firm, painless mass, measuring approximately 5 x 4 cm, on the left hallux (Figures 1A and 1B). The radiographic exa...

Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath is a benign soft tissue tumor most frequent between the third and fifth decades of life. It can mimic and make differential diagnoses with several hand tumors. Definitive diagnosis and the treatment of choice are reached with complete resection and histopathological examination. Here we describe a case with clinical presentation similar to that of a myxoid ...

The authors report on a rare case of multicentric giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath in the right index finger of a 76-year-old woman. In the present case, three lesions simultaneously arose at different sites in the same finger. Magnetic resonance imaging and intraoperative findings revealed no contiguity among the three lesions. A multicentric origin of the tumor is unusual. SICOT Online R...

The giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath (GCTTS) is a benign lesion which arises from the synovium of a joint, bursa or tendon sheath, with 85% of the tumors occurring in the fingers and 12% of the tumors located in large joints such as the knee and ankle. The GCTTS is usually monoarticular, slowly proliferative and rarely locally aggressive. This paper reports three cases of this rare lesion ...
