The following is a report of a giant cell tumor of a metatarsal, description of treatment, and review of the literature. Giant cell tumors comprise approximately 5–8% of the primary bone tumors. Metatarsal bones are a very rare primary site of involvement. Clinically aggressive or benign behavior cannot be predicted histologically. Treatment should be aggressive, as in this case where en bloc resection and bone graft were performed. Results were excellent with 4 yr follow-up.

Osteoclastoma (Giant Cell Tumor) of Cuboid bone is a rare bone tumor. GCT is primarily seen in metaphyseo-epiphyseal region of long bones after skeletal maturity. This patient is a 17 years old female, presented with painful swelling of the right foot. On conventional radiographs, there is osteolytic lesion in Cuboid bone of right foot. En bloc resection and autologous bone grafting (iliac crest) was done. Patient's pain and swelling disappeared following the procedure and there is no evidence of recurrence at 18 months follow up.

It is commonly accepted that wide en bloc resection followed by reconstruction is essential in progressive lesions (Campanacci grade III) for local control of possible recurrence. However, specific grade III can be downgraded and treated with intralesional curettage to preserve better wrist function, without increasing the recurrency rates. In this report, Grade III giant cell tumor of the distal radius was successfully treated using vascularized osseous graft from the inner lip of the iliac bone in addition to downgrading strategy.
