Comprehensive study of giant cell tumor of bone in major hospitals in and around mangalore, karnataka
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Traumatology & Surgical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Even after so many years of research studies using modern imaging techniques and histopathological diagnosing methods, when we describe a giant cell tumor of bone everything revolves around a word ‘most common’. Present study aims to correlate the clinical, radiological, and histological features with final result. The relative efficiency of various surgical procedures and complication rates are compared. The various reconstruction procedures and the extent to which they are successful in maintaining a functionally useful limb along with eradication of disease are studied. 30 Patients were studied staging, involvement, recurrence rate and functional outcome. The results showed that histological grading has little or no clinical correlation. Patients with cortical breach had more recurrence rate. Curettage with bone grafting is still the most accepted and effective mode of treatment.
