GIANT CELL TUMOR OF THE PROXIMAL PHALANX OF THE INDEX FINGER OF THE HAND: A RARE CASE REPORT

Background: Giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone is a relatively common type benign involving the epiphyseal region tubular bones, but GCT rarely occurs at hand (1–4% all GCT). within tends to be more aggressive and recurs rapidly in than other locations. Most authors prefer curettage or resection with reconstruction maintain anatomical functional integrity.Case Report: A 27-year-old man chief complaint an enlarged lump pain index finger his left hand. These lumps appeared three months ago. Plain radiographs showed lytic, eccentric, geographic lesions well-defined borders narrow transition zones. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) primary extension surrounding soft tissue. Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNAB) revealed lesion as Bone Cell Tumor. The patient then underwent local using allograft. Range movement (ROM) measurements DASH scores were evaluated.Discussion: Radiographic MRI examinations characteristic cortical breach, FNAB multinucleated giant spread. After treatment, was found pain-free, have improved ROM, reduced disability. There no recurrence observed. Conclusion: Despite tendency for aggressive, allograft adjuvant hydrogen peroxide can reduce
