Abstract: Trata-se de um relato de caso de tumor de células gigantes de bainha do ligamento cruzado anterior, uma localização extremamente rara para esse tipo de lesão. O paciente do sexo feminino apresentava dor no joelho, sem relato de trauma anterior. Foi submetido ao exame clínico, ao estudo radiográfico e de ressonância magnética da região. Feita a hipótese diagnóstica de TGC de Bainha, o paciente foi então tratado com ressecção artroscópica do tumor. O diagnóstico foi confirmado com exame anátomo-patológico. O pac… Show more

“…GCTTS may occur at any age but mostly at ages between 30 and 50, with a 2:1 female predominance (2,3). The usual presentation is knee swelling, usually slowly progressive with zeroto mild pain, and rare history of trauma (3,5,7). Plain radiography is usually free (7).…”

“…Another name is the tenosynovial giant cell tumor, with GCTTS being the localized form of the diffuse type PVNS (2,4). The GCTTS most commonly seen in the fingers is extremely rare in the knee (5). Uncertain etiology involves inflammation, trauma, toxin, allergy, clonal chromosomal abnormalities and aneuploidy.…”

“…It is a localized form of tenosynovial giant cell tumor seen in most cases in the fingers (2)(3)(4). The knee joint is the most common joint of involvement among the rare extra finger involvement (3)(4)(5)(6)(7). GCTTS may occur at any age but mostly at ages between 30 and 50, with a 2:1 female predominance (2,3).…”

“…The MRI is the gold standard to diagnose the masses in or around the knee joint (4-7). Local excision with arthroscopy or arthrotomy is the treatment of choice (1,3,(5)(6)(7). Local recurrence was reported to be 10-20% with the reason of inadequate primary resection and some authors recommend re-excision accompanied by radiation (1, 3, 4, 7).Our follow up was for about ten months with no clinical or MRI signs of recurrence (6, 7) .…”

“…Giant-cell tumor of the tendon sheath is considered the most frequent hand tumor, and it results from a benign proliferation of histiocytes from the joints and peritendinous synovial tissues developing around the tendon sheaths, joint ligaments and joint synovium. 4 12 13 14 15 16 Although there is still some divergence among the researchers, the most accepted etiology is reactive or regenerative hyperplasia associated with inflammation. 5 17 …”
