ABSTRACT

Giant cell tumor of bone is a locally osteolytic tumor with variable aggressiveness occasionally even by metastases. The lungs are the principal site of metastases, and the pulmonary lesions are pathologically indistinguishable from the primary tumor. In this case report we document a case of giant cell tumor of distal end of the radius in which, associated with local recurrence, there were simultaneous metastases to lung.

Keywords: Lung Metastasis, coin lesion, giant cell tumor of bone
