Özet
Giant cell tumor is a relatively frequent benign bone tumor; that is usually exhibited in the epiphyseo-metaphyseal region of long bones. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging may show cortical thinning and endosteal scalloping of the bone cortex in giant cell tumors. In radiologic imaging, the giant cell tumor of the bone is a heterogeneous mass because it contains many components, such as solitary mass, cystic areas, and bleeding. The occurrence of giant cell bone tumor in the patella is a rare condition and in this letter, we have reported the unusual coexistence of giant cell tumor on the bilateral patella at the same time. To the best of our knowledge, there is no reported case in the literature of bilateral patellar giant cell tumors.
