摘要

Giant cell tumour is a benign, but locally aggressive tumour. It most commonly affects the epiphysial-metaphyseal region of long bones, but rarely in flat bones. We present you a case of 26-year-old man with a large giant cell tumour of the inferior angle of the scapula. The patient was treated with partial scapulectomy with complete resection of tumour. There was excellent retention of shoulder function postoperatively.
