Between 1992 and 2008, we treated 35 patients with giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone, seven of the 35 pre-sented with a pathological fracture. The fractures were located in the femur in five, and in the humerus and radius in one patient each. The surgical treatments were curettage in six cases and wide resection in the distal radius case. Two of the seven patients developed local recurrence, giving a local recurrence rate of 29%. The local recurrence rate in GCT patients without a pathological fracture was 21%. There was a tendency for there to be a higher recurrence rate associated with fractured GCT, but no statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups. Therefore, it was considered that a pathological fracture was not a risk factor for local recurrence in GCT.
