The giant-cell tumor is uncommon. It occurs in the long bones and vertebral localization is much less common, particularly in thoracic spine. We present a case of a 37-year-old man suffering from severe back pain. Affected vertebral bodies were removed by transthoracic approach and the spine was reconstructed with iliac bone autografts and internal fixation device(Kaneda) between T 8 and T 11. Histologoical diagnosis was giant-cell tumor, and pertinent literature was reviewed.

국소형 거대 세포종은 주로 지 관절의 활액막에서 호발하는 것으로 알려져 있으며 슬관절 내에서는 드물게 발생하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 병리학적으로 다핵의 거대 세포를 특징적으로 가지는 질환으로 완전 절제 시 재발율은 낮다. 슬관절 내에 발생하는 경우 무증상에서 간헐적 잠김 증상까지 다양하게 나타날 수 있으며, 관절경적으로 완전 절제가 가능하나 불완전 절제 시 45%까지 재발하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 저자들은 후방 십자 인대의 전연에 발생한 거대 세포종 1예를 관절경 하에서 절제 후 병리학적으로 확진하여 이를 보고하고자 한다.

Folope 등(1999년)은 악성 연부조직 거대 세포종과 임상적, 병리학적, 면역조직화학적으로 유사하나, 악성도가 낮은 연부조직 거대 세포종을 보고하였다. 본 교실에서 치료한 1례는 30세 여자 환자로 내원 1년전부터 우측 슬관절 전외측부에 만져지는 종물과 동통을 주소로 내원하였다. 절제 생검을 통한 조직학적 소견상 거대 세포와 함께 호산성 세포질과 소포성의 핵을 지닌 다형성의 기질 세포 병변은 낮은 악성도의 연부조직 거대 세포종에 합당하였고, 이에 저자들은 낮은 악성도의 연부조직 거대 세포종 1례를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the craniofacial bones has been reported but they are not common. This tumor occurs more often in women than in men and predominantly affects patients around the third to fifth decade of life. GCTs are generally benign but can be locally aggressive as well. We report a case of GCT involving the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which was initially thought to be temporomandibular disorder (TMD). A 22-year-old female presented with swelling and pain over the right temporal region for 18 months associated with jaw locking and clicking sounds. On examination, her jaw deviated to the right during opening and there was a $2{\times}2$ cm swelling over the right temporal region. Despite routine treatment for TMD, the swelling increased in size. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and TMJ revealed an erosive tumor of the temporal bone involving the TMJ which was displacing the temporal lobe. Surgical excision was done and the tumor removed completely. Histopathological examination was consistent with a GCT. No clinical or radiological recurrence was detected 10 months post-surgery.

Background: Primary bone neoplasms are rare, contributing only 0.2% of the global burden of all human malignancies. Osteosarcoma (OS) and chondrosarcoma (CS) are the most common malignancies of bone. The giant cell tumor of bone (GCTb) is a benign tumor with behavior characterized by osteolytic bone destruction. The OS, CS and GCTb affect both sexes, all races and generally have incidence peaks regarding the age of the patient which vary according to the tumor type. We analyzed the incidences of OS, CS and GCTb and their relations with gender and age in patients treated in the National Rehabilitation Institute (INR, for its acronym in Spanish) over a period of nine years. Materials and Methods: In the study period, clinic pathological data for 384 patients were obtained with clinical, radiological and histopathological diagnosis for OS, GCTb and CS. Data analysis was performed using the chi-square and Fisher's exact tests. Results: From 2006 to 2014 were recorded 384 cases of bone malignancies in the database of INR. The GCTb had the highest incidence (53.1%), followed by OS (31.3%) and finally the CS (15.6%). The overall average age was $33.6{\pm}15.8$ years and the overall frequency of gender had a ratio of 1/1.03 male/female. The states with the highest incidence were Distrito Federal and Estado de Mexico with 29.2% and 25.3% respectively. Malignant neoplasms of bone assessed in the course of nine years show three significant increases in 2008, 2011 and 2014 (p=0.14). We found association between sex and tumor type (p=0.03), GCTb and CS predominated in females (54.9% and 56.6% respectively), while for the OS males were most affected (59.1%). Age was different in relation with tumor type (p=0.0001), average age was $24.3{\pm}11.2$ years for OS, $34.5{\pm}13$ years for GCTb and $49.2{\pm}18.5$ years for CS. Furthermore, associations of tumor type with topographic location of the primary tumor (P=0.0001) were found. Conclusions: In this study we can see that incidence of musculoskeletal tumor in our population is continuously increasing and in nine years an approximately 200% increase of musculoskeletal tumor cases was observed.

목적: 골 거대세포종 환자들의 치료결과 및 재발률을 평가하여 보고하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1980년 3월부터 2008년 12월까지 본원에서 치료 받은 거대세포종 환자 중 최소 12개월 이상 추적관찰이 가능하였던 54예에 대하여 후향적으로 조사하였다. 54예 중 남자 27예, 여자 27예로 평균 나이는 33.1세(13-67세)였다. 평균 추시 기간은 67개월(12-104개월)이었다. 결과: 54예 중 21예(38.9%)에서 국소재발이 발생하였으며 술 후 재발까지의 기간은 평균 21.5개월이었다. 국소재발에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 가진 인자로는 해부학적 위치와 임상적 병기로 하지에서 상지보다 낮은 재발률을 보였으며(p=0.032), Campanacci 분류 grade I이 grade II와 grade III보다 재발률이 낮았다. 소파술 후 골시멘트 충진을 시행한 군(28예)과 동종골 이식을 시행한 군(18예) 사이에도 국소 재발률에 대해 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았고, 소파술 후 국소 보조요법으로 냉동을 시행한 군과 시행하지 않은 군에서도 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 결론: 골 거대세포종의 국소 재발을 방지하기 위해서는 종양세포의 철저한 제거가 여러 부가적인 처치보다 더 중요하다고 판단된다.

원위 요골의 거대 세포종은 빈도가 많지는 않다. 통상적으로 골 소파술 및 골 시멘트 충전술로 치료하지만, 재발한 경우나 처음부터 골피질 파괴가 심하고 관절 침범이 있을 경우에는 일괄 절제(en bloc resection) 후 근위 비골을 이용하여 재건하는 술 식이 많이 이용되어 왔다. 본 연구는 고식적 술 식으로 치료한 후 국소 재발한 원위 요골의 거대 세포종 환자에서, 근위 비골을 이용한 재건술을 시행하여도 일차 술 식 시 오염의 범위가 심하여 다시 재발할 가능성이 높아 초고분자량 폴리에틸렌(ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene, UHMWPE)과 골수강내 고정물 및 골 시멘트를 조합하여 원위 요골을 재건한 1례를 보고 하고자 한다.

A rare case of tenosynovial giant cell tumor of invading left temporomandibular joint(TMJ) extending the middle cranial fossa is reported. Report of this entity in the temporomandibular joint is rare. A 39-year old male patient presented with mild discomfort and swelling in preauricular area. MR image demonstrated a destructive lesion of the left TMJ, with bony erosion of temporal bone and extension into middle cranial fossa. The patient underwent radiotherapy as adjuvant therapy to prevent recurrence, followed by resection. The histological and radiological features of this tumor are discussed along with a brief description of the disease entity.

Purpose : Treatment of giant cell tumor of distal radius can be treated in several ways according to the agressiveness of the tumor. We treated 3 cases of widely involved giant cell tumor of distal radius with wide resection and proximal fibular graft and report the results with review of literatures. Material and Method : We have treated 3 cases of giant cell tumor of the distal radius since last 1990. Among 3 cases, two cases were grade III radiologically and treated by wide resection of distal radius and vascularized proximal fibular graft, and one case, grade II radiologically, treated by distal radial resection and non-vascularized proximal fibular graft. We followed up clinical results of above three cases 9 years, 12 years and 2 years. Result : In all three cases, tranplanted fibula graft showed solid union but grade III tumors recurred at 4 year and 6 year postoperatively. One of the case which recurred 4 year later was treated with secondary wide resection and wrist fusion with autogenous iliac bone graft, and didn't show any recurrent finding for these 5 years after re-operation. And another grade III, which recurred at 6th post-operative year, is under follow-up for 6 years after recur without 2nd operation. Grade II case didn't show any recurrent findings on 2 year follow-up. Conclusion : Grade III cases recurred at 4 year and 6 year follow-up. The cause of recurrence was thought to be invasion of remaining tumor cell in the soft tissue. To prevent recurrence, complete resection of primary tumor was necessary.
