The authors report a case of grade I-II giant-cell tumour of the ribs extending to the thorax and the vertebral column. The tumour was treated by surgical resection followed by vertebral curettage in two stages and adjuvant regional radiotherapy. Giant-cell tumours of the ribs are exceptional and rarely found in the literature. They raise a therapeutic problem (surgery is essential, but radiotherapy is controverted), and a prognostic problem (there is always a potential risk of recurrent malignancy).
作者报告了一例I-II级肋骨巨细胞瘤，肿瘤延伸至胸部和脊柱。该肿瘤采用手术切除，分两阶段进行椎体刮除术，并辅以局部放疗。肋骨巨细胞瘤较为罕见，文献报道较少。它们引发了治疗问题（手术至关重要，但放疗存在争议）以及预后问题（始终存在恶性复发的潜在风险）。
