We report the case of a middle-age lady who presented following minor trauma, with dominant-sided anterior elbow pain and swelling of 6 months in duration. She was assessed clinically, and underwent investigations, which confirmed features consistent with giant cell tumour (GCT) of distal biceps tendon sheath. She underwent uneventful en-bloc excisional surgery. She did not have radiotherapy. She is now 5 years postoperatively asymptomatic, with full function, and with no signs of recurrence.
