Abstract

Abstract : Giant cell tumor(GCT) is a benign, locally aggressive tumor. It is most commonly found in epiphysiometaphyseal region of distal femur, proximal tibia and distal radius. GCT in metaphysio-diaphyseal region of proximal tibia and epiphyseal region of medial condyle of humerus has rarely been reported in literature. In this study, I am presenting two cases of giant cell tumor in rare sites.
