Presentation
Left wrist pain
Patient Data
A well-defined expansile, eccentric, lucent lesion with internal septation in the radial epiphysis, extending to the metaphysis and abutting the cortex.
The expansile lytic lesion has increased in size and now extends through the entire radius. The lesion has the characteristic appearance of a giant cell tumor but the expansile portion has grown considerably since the prior study and may represent a secondary aneurysmal bone cyst arising in the giant cell tumor.
Case Discussion
On resection this was found to be a giant cell tumor of bone, extending to subchondral region and eroding through the cortex into surrounding soft tissues.
