Abstract:
Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma (GCRG) of phalanx is
uncommon. It is a benign osteolytic lesion but can be locally
aggressive. GCRG has certain radiology and histological
features that are similar to other giant cell lesions of the
bone. We present a case report of a young patient with giant
cell reparative granuloma of proximal phalanx of left third
toe. The bone lesion was successfully treated surgically.
