Abstract

A 27 year old male patient presented with low back pain, after six month he presented with bilateral lower limb power loss with bowel bladder involvement. On clinical examination he was having local tenderness over mid thoracic level around T7-T8. On MRI it was found that the lytic lesion over T7 body along with cord compression. Decompression was done surgically. Microscopically it was confirmed that the lesion was Giant Cell Tumor. Giant Cell Tumor on dorsal vertebral body is an uncommon entity and total en bloc excision is difficult. Therefore, the treatment strategy is not well-defined. We discussing in brief about incidence, presentation and various treatment modalities available for spinal Giant Cell Tumor.
