Objective: Patella is a sesamoid bone which develops in the quadriceps tendon. It is an uncommon site for neoplasms. The most common primary tumors which involve patella are benign. These include chondroblastoma, giant cell tumor (GCT) and aneurysmal bone cyst. Malignant lesions are less common in patella. These encompass metastasis, osteosarcoma and hemangioendothelioma. The most common complaint in patients of GCT patella is anterior knee pain. Early diagnosis and optimal management are necessary for improving survival rate in these patients. Case Presentation: The authors present a case report of GCT of patella in a 16-year old child. Incisional biopsy was done to confirm the diagnosis. Further radiological examination showed that the tumor involved almost whole of the patella. Hence, surgical management in the form of patellectomy and extensor mechanism repair was done to improve the outcome of the disease. The patient did not have any clinical or radiological symptoms at the end of the final follow up of 22 months. Conclusion: Primary tumor of patella is a rare entity. Benign tumors like GCT present only with anterior knee pain and should be included in the differential diagnosis of anterior knee pain. MRI is useful to determine the extent of involvement of tumor in the patella. Treatment may vary from curettage and bone grafting to total patellectomy with extensor mechanism repair

Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumor

Tenosynovial giant cell tumors (TGCTs) are typically benign neoplasms of the joint, bursa, and tendon sheath. Usually, TGCT presents as a small localized tumor on the hand and wrist. The diffuse-type TGCT is more aggressive and mainly affects large joints such as knees, hips, ankles, and elbows. Diffuse-type TGCT of small joints is rare. To our knowledge, this is a very rare case of a huge diffuse-type TGCT on the wrist. We report a huge TGCT, which grew gradually over 10 years.

Introduction Giant cell tumors of the tendon sheath (GCTTS) are very common. More recently, a small number of case reports have identified the presence of multifocal GCTTS in the hand. These case reports have identified the presence of a maximum of two simultaneous lesions of a giant cell tumor affecting the same tendon sheath. We present an exceptionally rare case of simultaneous multiple localized GCTTS in which five lesions were identified on a single tendon simultaneously. This number of lesions on a single tendon has never been previously reported. Case: A 37-year-old tree surgeon initially complained of pain in the region of the base of the ring and little fingers. A month later, he developed multiple soft tissue swellings at these sites and a soft tissue mass in the center of the palm relating to the left ring finger. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan suggested multiple GCTTS. These masses were excised completely without MRI evidence of a recurrence. Multiple GCTTS should be a differential diagnosis of multiple soft tissue swellings in the hand with an MRI scan and complete excision being the appropriate imaging and treatment modality respectively.
