CASE 711: TENOSYNOVIAL GIANT CELL TUMOR, Dr PHAN THANH HẢI, Dr MÃ NGUYỄN MINH TÙNG, MEDIC MEDICAL CENTER, HCMC, VIETNAM

A 37 year-old man complained the pain of his knee and lower part of right thigh and first digit of right foot for one year. His prior history noted no trauma at the area.

Ultrasound detected an inhomogeneous hyperechoic mass #49×27mm at upper part of the knee that could not describe clearly the tendon and the periosteum of femur bone beneath.


Laboratory findings were nothing remarkable, except diabetes and lipid metabolic disorders.



MRI described  a synovial giant cell tumor.



Core biopsy resulted a TENOSYNOVIAL GIANT CELL TUMOR.
