The incidence of lung metastases from a histologically-proven GCT ranges from 1% to 9%. The recurrence rate after intralesional curettage without adjuvant therapy is reported to be up to 50%. Extended curettage with use of adjuvents is the treatment of choice for treating the most GCT of bones. Material and method: 25 patients presented with GCTBs included.In all patients standard plain anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the involved extremity were done.MRI of involved extremity was done in 19 cases. Diagnosis confirmed by biopsy and histopathological examination. The treatment of GCT is directed towards local control without scarifying joint function. This has been traditionally achieved by intralesional curet...
