Treatment of Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumor of the Cervical Spine with Postoperative Anti-RANKL Antibody (Denosumab) Administration.

Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a fibrous histiocytic tumor originating in the synovial membrane. While cervical TGCT may not be considered a common diagnosis preoperatively because it is relatively rare, it has a high recurrence rate and should be considered. Total resection is preferable, but it can be challenging due to the risk of damaging the vertebral artery. Denosumab has shown effectiveness as a postoperative treatment for osteolytic bone lesion. Denosumab administration coupled with close follow-up might offer an effective postoperative treatment option for unresectable TGCT with bone invasion.
