Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath is one of the most common soft tissue tumors of the hand. These tumors typically occur in the third or fourth decade of life and present as solitary nodules on a single digit. Currently, the greatest reported number of lesions found within a single digit is five. Although uncommon, giant cell tumor of tendon sheath does occur in the pediatric population. Herein we present a report of a rare case of GCTTS in a child in which seven lesions were identified within a single digit-the greatest number of lesions within a single digit reported to date.
腱鞘巨细胞瘤是手部最常见的软组织肿瘤之一。这些肿瘤通常发生在人生的第三个或第四个十年,表现为单个手指上的孤立结节。目前,单个手指内发现的病变报告数量最多为五个。虽然不常见,但腱鞘巨细胞瘤确实发生在儿童群体中。在此,我们报告一例罕见的儿童腱鞘巨细胞瘤病例,其中在单个手指内发现了七个病变——这是迄今为止报告的单个手指内病变数量最多的病例。
