Endoscopic Resection of Giant Cell Tumor of the Extensor Tendon of the Foot.


ABSTRACT: The localized form of giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath is one of the most common soft tissue tumors of the foot and ankle region. It is characteristically a benign, sharply localized peritendinous fibrous mass in the synovial or tendinous spaces. The purpose of this Technical Note is to present the technical details of endoscopic resection of giant cell tumor of the extensor tendon of the foot with preservation of the tendon. It is indicated in the localized form of giant cell tumor of the extensor tendon at the foot dorsum. It is contraindicated in cases with a diffuse giant cell tumor, a giant cell tumor of the extensor tendon at the phalangeal level, or involvement of the flexor tendon.
