Abstract
Introduction: Giant cell tumour of ulna is a rare and benign neoplasm but is locally invasive tumour. Distal ulna giant cell tumors have a reported incidence of 0.45 to 0.6%.
Case report: 43 years old female came with alleged History of slip and fall at her residence sustaining injury to right wrist and suspected to be a giant cell tumor. The giant cell tumour was treated with en bloc resection and curettage (Darrach's procedure). Patient was followed up for 6 months during which she regained full range of motion.
Conclusion: Giant cell tumor can masquerade as pathological fracture with En bloc Resection dramatically reducing the risk of recurrence.
