  • Title: Mid-foot reconstruction following involvement of five bones by giant cell tumor.
    Author: Szendröi M, Antal I, Perlaky G.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 2000 Nov; 29(11):664-7. PubMed ID: 11201038.
    Abstract:
    We report on a patient who had giant cell tumor involving multiple bones of the mid-foot. The tumor originated from the navicular bone, but also destroyed the cuboid, and all cuneiform bones. This unusual presentation of giant cell tumor presented a therapeutic challenge for the surgeons. The patient was treated with en bloc resection and the bony defect replaced with a massive iliac crest graft which united within 9 months and has remained stable for 7 years without local recurrence, and with excellent function of the foot.
