We have experienced a case of giant cell tumor originating from the rib. A 45-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of a mass in the left chest wall. A tumor shadow was observed in the left side of chest X ray. Chest CT, bone scintigram showed tumor originating from the left 4th rib. The tumor was suspected giant cell tumor of bone by needle biopsy examination. The tumor was completely resected with chest wall surrounding the tumor. The defect of chest wall was reconstructed with Marlex mesh and the Latissimus dorsi muscle flap. The pathological diagnosis was a giant cell tumor of bone. The patient has been well for two years and one month since surgery, with no signs of recurrence.
我们遇到过一例起源于肋骨的骨巨细胞瘤。一名45岁男性因左胸壁肿物入院。胸部X线检查发现左侧有肿瘤阴影。胸部CT、骨闪烁显像显示肿瘤起源于左第4肋骨。经针吸活检检查，该肿瘤疑似为骨巨细胞瘤。肿瘤连同周围胸壁被完整切除。胸壁缺损用Marlex网片和背阔肌肌瓣进行重建。病理诊断为骨巨细胞瘤。患者术后至今已两年零一个月，情况良好，无复发迹象。
