Abstract
|
|
|
|
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.
