J Surg Pak Jan ;11(2):79-81.

Giant cell tumor (GCT) or osteoclastoma is a locally aggressive tumor with an inclination for local recurrence. 85-90% of cases occur in the long bones, whereas only 2% of cases occur in the hand, and here too, metacarpal involvement is a rare occurrence with only few cases reported in the literature so far. A case of GCT of 1st metacarpal in a 28-year-old female is presented in this case report.
