Giant Cell Tumour of the First Metacarpal Bone

Abstract
A rare case of giant cell tumour of first metacarpal bone which was aggressive in its clinical behaviour but histologically benign, is reported in a thirty-one year old male. The tumour was excised en-bloc with disarticulation of the thumb and index finger with a gratifying result. The literature on giant-cell-tumour of the metacarpal bones is reviewed.
