    Author: Alvarez Ramos A, Valverde García JA, García Alonso MG.
    Journal: J Pediatr Orthop B; 1999 Apr; 8(2):132-5. PubMed ID: 10218178.
    Abstract:
    Giant cell tumor of the bone is infrequent in the phalanges of the toes and is extremely rare in children. A case of giant cell tumor of the proximal phalanx of the big toe on the left foot in a 12-year-old boy is reported. The tumor was treated by partial resection of the phalanx and repair of the osseous defect with an autologous iliac crest graft. A literature review showed few cases of giant cell tumor at this site.
