Challenges in imaging and histopathological assessment of a giant cell tumour with secondary aneurysmal cyst in the patella

Abstract: The patella is an uncommon site for all primary and metastatic bone tumours and primary intra-osseous tumours of the patella are very rare. A majority of the patella tumours are benign. We report a patient with a sudden onset swelling and pain of the right knee following a staircase fall. The plain radiograph showed an expansile multiseptated patella lesion and it was further assessed with an MRI. The radiological findings and the initial histopathological features from a limited sample were suggestive of a pr… Show more

“…The association of secondary ABC has been seen in 14% of GCT [1,10-13]. Although GCT and ABC are common benign tumors of the patella, a combined GCT and ABC case is extremely rare [6-9].…”

“…The clinical presentation of GCT with secondary ABC is the same as that of isolated GCT in patella [6-9]. Pain, swelling, and restriction of movement may be there in any lesion of the patella; hence, radiological and histological evaluations are crucial.…”
