title: [Multicentric giant cell tumour. The case report].
abstract: The case of a 28 year old woman with multicentric giant cell bone tumours was described. Seven tumours' locations were found: Th3, the right and left humerus and tibia, the right femur and the right hip bone. All tumours were treated by a local resection with a following alcohol adjuvant therapy. Considering young age of the patient and multicentric location no radiotherapy was performed. During follow up no relapse in long bones and in the hip bone was found. After 6 months the relapse in Th3 was reoperated. During the last control examination, the next tumour of a distal part of right tibia was found.
