Abstract

Giant cell tumor or Osteoclastoma is a locally aggressive benign tumor accounting for 3%-5% of all the primary bone tumors. This tumoruslually affects distal femur, proximal tibia or distal radius. Case- A 32 year old female presented to the OPD with gradually increasing swelling at distal end of ulna. After through clinico-radiological examination, a diagnosis of Enneking grade 3 giant cell tumor of distal end ulna was made which was treated with En block Excision. Conclusion- Giant cell tumor of distal end ulna is a rare entity which can be successfully treated with En block excision without the need for reconstruction. This tumor has a good prognosis with no recurrence and complete functional recovery can be achieved when diagnosed at an early stage.
