Özet

Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a rare benign tumor that often arises in tendon sheath as well as long bones of the lower extremity in adults, although localization in the metatarsus is rare. In this report, the authors describe the rare case of GCT localized to the third metatarsal GCT in a skeletally mature 17-year-old girl, and also describe the results of distal metatarsal resection with Kirschner wire stabilization for the treatment of this condition.
