거대한 피부편평세포암은 드문 피부 종양이다. 편평세포암은 모든 피부 악성 종양 중 20%을 차지한다. 피부편평세포암은 주로 햇빛의 노출되는 것이 주요 원인으로 알려져 있으며, 때때로 피하층을 침범을 하는 경향이 있다. 편평세포암이 흔한 종양인 것과는 다르게, 5cm 이상의 거대 편평세포암은 보고된 바가 드물다. 이에 저자는 경부에 발생한 $14.5cm{\times}11.5cm{\times}9.5cm$ 크기의 거대한 피부편평세포암을 피부이식술을 통해 성공적으로 치료하여 이에 대해서 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Giant cell-rich osteosarcoma is a rare tumor that is hard to distinguish from giant cell tumors of bone. The location and radiographic aspect of these tumors can be identical. The histologic differentiation between a giant cell-rich osteosarcoma and a giant cell tumor can be difficult. Due to the different prognosis and treatment strategies of these tumors it is essential to make the right diagnosis at presentation. This article reports a case of a giant cell-rich osteosarcoma of the proximal tibia that initially was diagnosed histologically as a giant cell tumor by needle biopsy.

Purpose: To evaluate association of giant cell tumors recurrence between markers of proliferation cells (MCM3, Ki-67 and HH3) Materials and Methods: Ten case of giant cell tumor of bone were reviewed. The patients were six males and four females (mean age: 33 yrs). All patients were done operation after biopsy. The radiologic grading was determined according to Enneking grading system. The immunohistochemical stains of MCM3, HH3, and Ki-67 were done with Microarray block. Results: The three cases of 10 cases (30%) were recurred at same sites. Two case of recurrence was grade II according to radiologic features. The remaining case was grade I. The expression rate of immunohistochemical markers in radiologic grade 2 and 3 were more increased than grade 1. But there was not association between radiologic grading and proliferation of tumor cells because result data was not coherence. Mean MCM3 labeling index of non-recurred case was 11.2%, recurred case was 7.2%. Ki-67 was 12% vs. 8.9%, respectively and HH3 was 66.9 % vs. 75.4%, respectively. Thus there was no association between local recurrence and immunohistochemical Ki-67, MCM3 expression rate. But HH3 marker expression rate was increased in recurred cases compared to non-recurred cases. Conclusion: Our study suggests that HH3 immunohistochemical marker can be a useful prognostic factor.

A Giant cell tumor of bone has unusual characteristics of pulmonary metastasis as well as local aggressiveness. Clinical courses of pulmonary metastasis of benign giant cell tumor vary including rapid growth, continuously slow growth or spontaneous regression. We report a case of extensive pulmonary metastasis of giant cell tumor of bone, which regressed spontaneouly.

Giant cell reparative granuloma (GCRG) is an uncommon benign lesion that is most commonly found in the mandible and maxialla, and is a very rare condition in finger. We report an unusual case of GCRG arising in the index finger of a 21-year-old man. Histology was characteristic of giant cell reparative granuloma.

Malignant tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TsGCT) is a rare disease that can arise as a recurrent lesion or co-exist with a benign TsGCT lesion. Here we report a rare case of malignant TsGCT in a 73-year-old male with a history of lymphoma. The tumor appeared as a superficial soft-tissue mass in the subcutaneous fat tissue of the left knee.

Giant cell tumor is a benign but locally aggressive tumor with common recurrence. Most cases occur around the knee joint. Giant cell tumor of the foot is rare and very few cases involving the first metatarsal have been reported. Its characteristics and treatment in adult patients remain unclear. This paper reports a case of recurrent giant cell tumor at the first metatarsal that was excised surgically and subsequently reconstructed with non-vascularized fibula graft.

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.

Folope et al(1999) reported soft tissue giant cell tumor which was similar to malignant giant cell tumor in clinical, pathologic, and immunohistological aspect but represented low malignancy. We reported a 30-year-old female suffered from pain and palpable mass on the anterolateral aspect of the right knee for one year. Excisional biopsy from the lesion revealed some giant cells and polymorphous cells containing eosinophilic cytoplasm and vacuolated nucleus. Histopathologic findings of the lesion were consistent with soft tissue giant cell tumor of low malignant potential. Hereby, we report a case of soft tissue giant cell tumor of low malignant potential with a review of the literature.

Giant cell tumor rarely occurs in ribs. Usually it is located in the posterior arc. We reported a very rare case of primary giant cell tumor of rib in the anterior arc with review of literatures.
