RODRIGUEZ-FRANCO, José Humberto; TECUALT-GOMEZ, Romeo; ALONSO AMAYA-ZEPEDA, Rubén  y  ATENCIO-CHAN, Adriana. Giant cell tumor of proximal tibia in multiple osteochondromatosis. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2015, vol.29, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3100.

The event of closely two-primary bone tumors is rare. A case of a patient with bone giant cell tumor while multiple osteochondromatosis in proximal tibia occurs is presented here. It has not been reported before in literature. Although the pathology report confirms the coexistence of the two neoplasms in the same anatomical aneurysmal segment with added component, the report did not demonstrate a necessary genetic association between the two neoplasms. Further investigation is needed to discriminate the existence of a common genetic background.

Palabras clave : multiple osteochondromatosis; hereditary multiple exostosis; giant cell bone tumor.
