Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumour of the Dorsum of the Foot: A Rare Presentation in an Unusual Location

Introduction: Giant cell tumour of the tendon sheath generally presents in large joints and sometimes can present in smaller joints as well. The presentation varies between months to years and patients generally present with vague complaints. Objectives:To evaluate clinical, radiological and histological features of giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath. Case presentation This case report is about a forty-year old female who presented with complaints of swelling on the right foot for the past two years with no other significant symptoms. She was diagnosed with giant cell tumour of the tendon sheath in the dorsum of foot. Treatment The patient was treated with surgical intervention and was discharged on recovery from surgery. Follow up was advised for monitoring the effect of treatment and recurrence. Conclusion Literature review studies suggesting newer treatment options for better outcomes discussed
