Giant cell tumor is considered a bening tumor but it is also potentially malignant. It has a. prediction to an end of a long bone in young adult.
Despite of the voluminous literature on this rather common condition, the reports of the tumor involving the spine is surprisingly few.
We experience a case of the tumor affecting the vertebral body of the lumbar spine. The lesion was treated by radical curettage and anterior interbody fusion.
At ten month follow-up, there was no recurrence. Fuether follow up is in order.
