Clinical Outcome of Extended Curettage with Postoperative Denosumab Administration for the Treatment of Campanacci Grade III Giant Cell Tumors of the Extremities
Our observations suggest that extended curettage with postoperative denosumab administration is a reasonable option for treating Campanacci Grade III giant cell tumors of the extremities. Extended curettage with adjuvant denosumab therapy results in beneficial surgical downstaging, including a less morbid surgical procedure or delayed en bloc resection. Resection should be considered when the structural integrity cannot be regained after bone grafting or bone cement filling combined with internal fixation.
