Giant cell tumor (GCT), also known as osteoclastoma, is a locally aggressive benign tumor arising in the epiphysis of bone. It accounts for 3%-8% of all bone tumors. About 75%-90% of GCTs occur in long tubular bones with more than 50% arising in the distal femur and proximal tibia. Flat bone involvements such as ribs, skull, patella, sternum, and clavicle are rare. Sixty-seventy percent of patients with GCT are between 20 and 40 years of age, rarely affecting too young or too old. We present here an unusual case of GCT of the clavicle in a 62-year-old female.
骨巨细胞瘤(GCT),也称为破骨细胞瘤,是一种起源于骨骺的局部侵袭性良性肿瘤。它占所有骨肿瘤的3%-8%。约75%-90%的骨巨细胞瘤发生于长管状骨,其中超过50%发生于股骨远端和胫骨近端。肋骨、颅骨、髌骨、胸骨和锁骨等扁平骨受累较为罕见。60%-70%的骨巨细胞瘤患者年龄在20至40岁之间,很少影响年龄过小或过大的人群。我们在此报告一例62岁女性锁骨骨巨细胞瘤的罕见病例。
