title: Benign giant cell tumour with metastases to bone and lung. One case studied over 20 years.
abstract: We report a case of benign giant cell tumour which over a 20-year period has given rise to pulmonary and bony metastases. The indolent nature of these metastases is remarkable, with considerable implications for the long-term management of such cases.
