Abstract

Giant cell tumor is a bony tumor which primarily occurs in third to fourth decade after skeletal maturation. Usually, this tumor arises in the distal end of long bone and is quite rare in the head and neck region. We had a elderly female patient with giant cell tumor at lateral skull base of the left temporal bone without classic symptoms. Team approach with neurosurgeon was used to eradicate the tumor. The detail of this case in conjunction with treatment of giant cell tumor was reported while reviewing pertinent papers.
