Research Notes on Giant Cell Tumor of the Tendon Sheath
Giant cell tumors of the tendon sheath (GCTTS) are the second most common tumors of the hand. Giant cell tumors of the tendon sheath are usually painless masses that have been present for a long time, with reports of tumors lasting as long as 30 years. These tumors usually cause no symptoms, except for occasional distal numbness; however, mild disability may result from impaired function due to the size of the lesion.
