The successful control of multiple pulmonary metastasis from giant cell tumor of bone by monthly denosumab administration: A case report.

Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a locally aggressive benign neoplasm that is associated with a large biological spectrum ranging from latent benign to highly recurrent and occasionally metastatic tumor. In this article, we present a case of a 37-year-old woman who presented with fracture at the distal femur due to GCTB. Bone segment resection and reconstruction were done, and histopathology showed tumor features for GCTB. Later, multiple lung metastasis was found 22 months post-operation, which was verified by biopsy. Then systemic denosumab therapy with different intervals (1-month and 2-month) was tried as the treatment. It was clarified that monthly denosumab administration, instead of 2-month interval, was required to control the progression of the unresectable multiple lung metastasis from GCTB, which could be a choice for the future treatment of these patients.
