Abstract
Giant cell tumors (GCTs) of the bone present unique challenges in management due to their locally aggressive nature and potential for recurrence. This case report describes the successful surgical management of a GCT located in the proximal tibia of a 28-year-old female. The patient presented with six months of pain and swelling following a traumatic injury to the knee. Diagnostic imaging confirmed the presence of a GCT, leading to preoperative prophylactic embolization to reduce intraoperative bleeding. Surgical excision of the tumor was performed, followed by reconstruction using autologous fibula grafts and plate fixation. Postoperative care included analgesia, antibiotics, and physiotherapy. Regular follow-up demonstrated satisfactory clinical outcomes without evidence of recurrence. This case highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach combining surgical expertise, preoperative planning, and postoperative rehabilitation to achieve favorable outcomes in managing GCTs.
