Abstract
This case is reported to illustrate the operative transplantation of benign giant cell tumor of bone to a distant soft tissue site. The primary tumor originating in the upper end of the tibia and the local recurrence 9 months later showed a typical benign histological picture. The transplantation occurred in the soft tissue in the left iliac region at the site of previous operative interference and it revealed an identical histological picture. The authors wish to express their thanks to Dr. R. I. Harris and Prof. Wm. Boyd for advice and critcism in the preparation of this paper.Keywords
