Malignant transformation in a fatal case of giant cell tumour of the sacrum.

J P Crew1, M Flannery, B Manners, C J Coates.   

Abstract

Most giant cell tumours can be treated by local surgery and only rarely are they life threatening. We report a case of a giant cell tumour of the sacrum causing irresectable and fatal small bowel obstruction following malignant transformation of the tumour. The role of radiotherapy in this transformation is discussed.
