| Abstract | Tumours are rare around the elbow joint, and giant cell tumours are especially rare in this region. A single case report of a giant cell involving the distal humerous was found in the literature and none were found involving the isolated medial condyle. We present a rare case of a 22-year-old woman with progressively increasing painful swelling in her left elbow over a period of 6 months. A plain radiograph revealed an expansile epiphyseometaphyseal, radiolucent lesion in the medial end of the distal humerous, with the rim being thin but still intact. The MRI of the elbow revealed a solid lesion in the medial aspect of the elbow with no breach of cortex. Biopsy of the lesion revealed multinucleated giant cells along with mononuclear cells consistent with a diagnosis of giant cell tumour. Extended curettage with bone cement was performed through an anterior approach. There has been no recurrence of the tumour in 2 years of follow-up; the patient has a good range of elbow movements of 20-110°. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
