Abstract
- A localized tenosynovial giant cell tumor rarely affects the bilateral knee joint compared to the diffuse form. Only a few cases can be found in the literature, and there is no case report of the bilateral localized form of giant cell tumor causing patellofemoral pain syndrome in Korea. This study experienced a case of bilateral localized giant cell tumor, causing patellofemoral pain syndrome. The tumor was excised arthroscopically and confirmed pathologically. This paper reports this case with a review of the relevant literature.
