Title

MALIGNANT GIANT CELL TUMOR OF TENDON SHEATH: REPORT OF A CASE

Pages

  56-62

Abstract

 Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath is common although the malignant form is only rarely reported and some investigators still do not believe that such a transformation really exists. This is a case report of a GIANT CELL TUMOR of tendon sheath which has transformed into a malignant form. The patient was a 49-year-old male who had referred with pain and swelling of the distal region of his left leg for a few-weeks duration. In physical examination, edema as well as a mass in the soft tissue of that area was observed. CT-scan showed a moth- eaten pattern without periosteal reaction at the calcaneus. The soft tissue tumor was 2x2x 1.7 cm in size and after excision, the histopathological diagnosis was GIANT CELL TUMOR of tendon sheath. Seven months later, pain and edema recurred at the same site and multiple nodules were seen on the ankle area. A biopsy was taken from the calcaneus and the soft tissue mass was totally resected. Histopathological and histiochemical examination revealed a malignant GIANT CELL TUMOR of tendon sheath. Therefore, it seems that in rare instances this benign process can transform into a malignant counterpart.
