Giant cell tumour (GCT) of bones in the hand is very rare, only 2% of all hand tumours, but unacceptably high recurrence rates (up to 90%) have been reported by several authors. Diagnosis can be challenging due to its rarity and enchondroma-mimicking characteristics. We report on a case of GCT of the middle phalanx of the left middle finger in a 49-year-old woman who underwent middle phalanx resection and reconstruction with bone grafting. At the 1-year follow-up, no evidence of recurrence was detected and the patient was pain-free. 2019-08-05T04:40:51Z 2019-08-05T04:40:51Z 2019-03-01 Journal 1757790X 2-s2.0-85063513764 10.1136/bcr-2018-229076 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=85063513764&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/65777 |
