Abstract
Giant cell tumor is slow-growing, unilateral and solitary lesion that is most commonly seen in the digit of the hand, but occasionally occurs in the hips, ankles, toes and wrists and rarely in knee. We experienced 1 case of giant cell tumor in knee joint. That was excised arthroscopically and pathologically confirmed. So we report this case with a review of the literatures.
거대 세포종은 서서히 자라는 일측성의 국소형 종물로서 수부에서 흔하고 고관절, 족지관절에서도 보고되나 슬관절내에서는 드물게 발생한다. 이에 저자들은 슬관절 관절강내에서 발생한 거대 세포종 1예를 관절경하에 제거한뒤 병리학적으로 확진하였으며 이를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.
