Giant Cell Tumor of Bone (GCTB) is a very rare neoplasm of the skeleton (about
one new case per million population per year). In literature there is a great
confusion about GCTB. The majority of authors think that GCTB is a benign
locally aggressive tumor, others think that this is a malignant neoplasm and
some authors think that GCTB is a reactive condition.
This is the first case in literature of GCTB of the Hipbone invading the
Bladder.
