Third-Ray and Capitate Resection with Limited Midcarpal Fusion for Recurrent Giant Cell Tumor: A Case Report.
JBJS Case Connector 2018 January
CASE: We describe a 23-year-old man who had multiple recurrences of a giant cell tumor (GCT) of the third metacarpal. Initial treatments consisted of curettage without the use of an adjuvant and bone-grafting. At the time of the latest recurrence, the lesion had extended into the capitate and the trapezoid. Treatment included third-ray resection and limited midcarpal fusion. No local recurrence was identified at more than 1 year after surgery.
CONCLUSION: GCTs of the hand should be aggressively treated, but care should be taken to preserve function whenever possible.
