Giant Cell Tumor of #Trapezoid BoneDiagnosis and Treament: A Case Report from Vietnam by Dung Tran Trung in BJSTR

Abstract

#Giantcelltumor is a lesion of bone which is relatively common, but giant cell tumor of trapezoid #bone is very rare. According to the Literature, there is few case report [1-4] and just 25 patients were reported from 1935 to 2005 [1]. Surgery with bone resection and grafting plays an important role in giant cell tumor. However, late stage giant cell tumor of trapezoid bone usually requires totally bone resection without any bone preservation. The difficulty we can meet when we remove trapezoid bone totally is how we can preserve the function of the hand because this bone is located on 2nd row of carpal bones and connect directly with #metacarpalbones. We would like to present one case which was diagnosed in a late-stage and had to be total trapezoid excised and bone plasty successfully and review the literature.
