Abstract
Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a benign, locally aggressive neoplasm with little incidence at the carpal bone level. We present a case of pyramidal bone GCT that required open biopsy for diagnosis. As a definitive treatment, en bloc resection of the pyramidal bone and luno-capitate arthrodesis were performed to avoid frequent relapses of these neoplasms and ensure proper functionality of the anatomical segment.
