The Effect of Cellular Proliferative Activity on Recurrence and Local Tumour Extent of Localized Giant Cell Tumour of Tendon Sheath

This study investigates whether the proliferative activity of giant cell tumour of tendon sheath is related to its recurrence rate and local aggressiveness. The clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features of 30 localized giant cell tumours of tendon sheath were studied and the influence of the MIB-1 staining index on recurrence, tumour extent around the phalanx and involvement of the bone were evaluated. No significant difference in the MIB-1 staining index was found between the lesions which recurred and those which did not. Also there was no significant association between local aggressiveness and the MIB-1 staining index. These results suggest that the proliferative activity of localized giant cell tumour of tendon sheath is not related to its high recurrence rate and local aggressiveness.

Uncommon Tumour

Giant cell tumour arises from the synovium of tendon sheath, joints, or bursae,mostly affects adults between 30 and 50 years of age, and is slightly more common in females.Giant cell tumour of tendon sheath of tendoachilles is uncommon tumour. Usually it has a high rate of recurrence. In this article we report the case of a 32 year old female with Giant cell tumour of tendoachilles treated by excision with no reccurence after 7 months of follow up

Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumour

Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath is a common benign lesion of the hand. They are also known as tenosynovial giant cell tumours. Magnetic resonance imaging is the imaging modality of choice and the current treatment is surgical excision of the lesion. This lesion is particularly known for its high recurrence rates. Here, we present a case of a recurrent tenosynovial giant cell tumour of the flexor tendon sheath of the index finger at the distal palmar crease. Diagnosis was confirmed by MRI and the lesion was excised. Histopathology revealed a localized type of tenosynovial giant cell tumour.
