Aim

To analyse our results after en-block resection of aggressive GCT during 20 years period.

Methods

We review 86 patients with skeletal GCT during the last 20 years, from 1990 until 2009, retrospectively. In the cases of latent and active type, extended curettage and bone graft or cement were our treatment of choice, while in aggressive ones we performed en block resection and reconstruction by fibular autograft (e.g. in distal part of radius) or fusion/hinge joint prosthesis (e.g. in GCT around the knee joint). We describe the recurrences, metastases and complications according to treatment.
