“…It has been found that several types of bone lacerations involving osteoclastic giant cells such as; osteosarcoma, primary ABC, non-ossifying fibroma, chondroblastoma, brown tumor (hyperparathyroidism), giant cell reparative granuloma and the giant cell-rich type specifically exhibit much more distinction than GCTB. Recurrence in case of tumor posttreatment usually takes place after 3 years but, GCTs have shown late relapse such as 15 years of time span which occurs at the locus where surgical treatment was performed to eliminate the tumor [62,63].…”

The primary bone tumor is usually observed in adolescence age group which has been shown to be part of nearly 20% of the sarcomas known today. Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) can be benign as well as malignant tumor which exhibits localized dynamism and is usually associated with the end point of a long bone. Giant cell tumor (GCT) involves mononuclear stromal cells which proliferate at a high rate, multinucleated giant cells and stromal cells are equally present in this type of tumor. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been confirmed to play a potential role in the development of GCT. Cancer stem cell-based microRNAs have been shown to contribute to a greater extent in giant cell tumor of bone. CSCs and microRNAs present in the tumors specifically are a great concern today which need indepth knowledge as well as advanced techniques to treat the bone cancer effectively. In this review, we attempted to summarize the role played by cancer stem cells involving certain important molecules/factors such as; Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs), miRNAs and signaling mechanism such as; mTOR/PI3K-AKT, towards the formation of giant cell tumor of bone, in order to get an insight regarding various effective strategies and research advancements to obtain adequate knowledge related to CSCs which may help to focus on highly effective treatment procedures for bone tumors.

“…Also, it has uncontrolled proliferation of mesenchymal stromal cells due to sustained osteoclastogenesis and failure of differentiation into osteoblasts 1, 2 . In general, these tumors are rare. A populationbased study from Sweden found an incidence rate of 1.3 per million persons per year 3 . The incidence of GCTB in Asian countries is significantly higher than that in western countries 4,5 .…”

Background: Giant-cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a locally aggressive tumor which metastasizes infrequently to the lungs. The standard treatment of GCTB was surgery until the approval of denosumab. Aim: To describe the outcome of treatment of this rare tumor and to determine factors that influence survival. Methods: Retrospective review of the medical records of GCTB patients treated at our institution. Collected data includes: clinicopathological data, treatment modalities and possible prognostic factors. Results: Forty-two patients were identified between May 2008 and November 2017. Their median age was 31 years, and the majority (62%) were females. The commonest primary sites were the upper and lower limbs (50% and 43%, respectively). Eight (19%) patients initially presented with lung metastases. Thirteen (31%) patients received denosumab as first line treatment before surgery and 12 of them underwent surgery post-denosumab. Denosumab was given after recurrence in 12 (29%) patients [8 (19%) with lung metastasis and 4 (10%) with localized disease]. The objective response rate to denosumab after recurrence was 50%. Four (10%) patients achieved complete response and 2 (5%) partial response. After a median follow up of 4.7 years, 6 (14%) patients had local recurrence and 8 (19%) had lung metastasis with no recorded deaths. The 5-year progression-free survival rate was 61%. Conclusion: Denosumab is effective and tolerable in the management of GCTB preoperatively in localized disease to facilitate surgery and in the management of metastatic disease. Multi-institutional prospective studies are needed for further assessment.
