Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 9

Abstract

Giant cell lesions have been reported at small bones of hands and feet. Most of them are seen in third and fourth decade with a distinct predilection for skeletally mature females. The giant cell containing lesions of small bones are mostly aneurysmal bone cysts rather than true giant cell tumors. Both, giant cell tumor and aneurysmal bone cyst are unusual in talus. It is not uncommon to see areas of secondary aneurysmal bone cyst in giant cell tumors.
