Giant Cell Tumor as a Rare Cause of Loose Bodies in the Knee Joint - A Case Report.

J Orthop Case Rep

September 2024

Department of Orthopaedics, Aayush Hospitals, Eluru, Andhra Pradesh, India.

Article Synopsis
  • Loose bodies in the knee can arise from various common causes, including fractures and osteoarthritis, but they can also be related to neoplastic growths like giant cell tumors (GCT).
  • A case report details a 35-year-old male who experienced loose bodies in his knee three years post-surgery for GCT of the femur; imaging confirmed the presence of loose bodies, which were surgically removed.
  • Post-removal histopathology indicated the loose bodies were GCT, and the patient reported symptom relief with no signs of recurrence, highlighting the importance of examining any loose bodies associated with prior bone tumors.

The management of transchondral and osteochondral talar lesions has evolved, with microfracturing originally considered the best initial treatment. Despite talar lesions being a tri-dimensional defect, most studies use 2-dimensional parameters to grade them. We propose in this study that tri-dimensional sizing may be more appropriate in evaluation for treatment.

November 2009

Orthopedics Department 3, Hip, Knee and Foot Surgery Unit, Lapeyronie Hospital, Montpellier Teaching Hospitals, 371 Avenue du Doyen-Giraud, 34295 Montpellier Cedex 5, France.

Characterizing osteochondral lesions of the talus has enabled the strategies of surgical management to be better specified. The main technical problem is one of access for arthroscopy instruments to posteromedial lesions. A range of techniques and approaches has been described in ankle arthroscopy in general, and a transmalleolar approach provides reliable and efficient access in these cases.
