Abstract

Giant cell tumors are benign osteolytic tumors with a variable degree of aggressiveness. We report a rare case of a giant cell tumor involving the metacarpal bone, which was detected during pregnancy and showed rapid progression on a follow-up examination.

거대세포종은 양성 골용해성 종양으로서 다양한 정도의 공격적 성향을 보일 수 있다. 여기서는 임신중에 발견되어 추적검사에서 매우 빠른 진행을 보인, 중수골에서의 거대세포종의 드문 증례를 소개하고자 한다.
