Multicentric giant cell tumour (GCT) is extremely rare; no case has been previously reported where two lesions occurred in the same foot at different sites. We report a case involving the calcaneus and subsequently the 3(rd) toe of the same foot and review the reported literature. In established cases of multicentricity, the histopathology has to be properly reviewed and the patient has to be followed up for a longer time with serial whole body assessment to pick up any subsquent lesions. The treatment of the local disease does not differ from a standard GCT.
多中心性巨细胞瘤（GCT）极为罕见；此前尚无同一足部不同部位出现两个病灶的病例报道。我们报告一例累及同一足部跟骨及随后的第3趾的病例，并对已发表的文献进行综述。在确诊为多中心性的病例中，必须对组织病理学进行恰当评估，并且必须对患者进行更长时间的随访及系列全身评估，以发现任何后续病灶。局部病变的治疗与标准GCT并无不同。
