Intralesional Excision versus Wide Resection for Giant Cell Tumor Involving the Acetabulum: Which is Better?

Abstract: Background Because of the anatomic complexity of the pelvis, there is no standard surgical treatment for giant cell tumors (GCTs) of the pelvic bones, especially in the periacetabular region. Treatment options include intralesional curettage with or without adjunctive techniques and wide resection. The best surgical treatment of a pelvic GCT remains controversial.

“…In this case, percutaneous cryoablation therapy was an alternative option for curative intent treatment of a GCT with extensive involvement of the pelvic bone and the A large resection surgery, such as a hemipelvectomy, might produce poor functional and esthetic results, and a more conservative surgical approach, such as curettage with the application of adjuvants, carries a high risk of local recurrence after a markedly morbid procedure [5].…”

“…Despite these reservations, some authors advocate this method in the proximal femur [15]. Whatever the method used, recurrences are frequent, occurring between a few months and five years, in proportions of 20% to 40% according to the series [16] [17] [18] [19]. In 15% of cases, it is malignant degeneration [20] [21] [22].…”
