Tuberculosis of the distal end of the radius mimicking a giant-cell tumour.

K L Pan1, S Ibrahim.   

Abstract

We report a case of a lady presenting with a lesion in the distal radius with classical radiological features of a giant-cell tumour. These tumours are often resected without preliminary histological confirmation. A biopsy done in this patient showed it to be tuberculosis.
