Giant cell tumor of the distal radius presents a significant challenge in management due to high risk of recurrence and potential loss of function. Shared decision-making guides management, particularly for more advanced lesions. Intralesional curettage can optimize wrist function but at the cost of a higher recurrence risk. Wide resection decreases local recurrence but has higher complication rates regardless of reconstruction method. No functional difference exists between motion-preserving procedures and arthrodesis; therefore, patients should be clearly informed of the risks and benefits of each treatment option.

Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Barcelona, Spain.
Background: Denosumab represents a valuable treatment option for unresectable giant cell tumors of the bone (GCTBs). However, no standardized protocols exist determining the length of administration, with few studies having been published on patients who reached the end of treatment.
Aims: To analyze the outcomes of patients diagnosed with GCTB and who had finished single treatment with denosumab.

Giant cell arteritis (GCA), also known as temporal arteritis, is the most common form of vasculitis in the elderly. While initially described as involving the temporal arteries, GCA can also affect the aorta and its major branches. Despite the increased use of imaging modalities and the availability of temporal artery biopsy, diagnosing GCA remains challenging.
