ABSTRACT
RATIONALE Giant cell tumor of bone is a locally aggressive and rarely metastasizing neoplasm that typically affects the ends of long bones or the axial skeleton of young to middle-aged adults. As many as 69% to 100% of giant cell tumors harbor H3F3A gene mutations, while H3F3B gene mutations have rarely been reported. PATIENT CONCERNS A 53-year-old male patient who underwent right distal femoral tumor resection. DIAGNOSES Preoperative CT plain scan indicated giant cell tumor of bone with pathological fracture. Laboratory findings were as follows serum calcium was 2.23 mmol/L (reference range 2.1-2.55 mmol/L) and serum phosphorus was 1.35 mmol/L (reference range 0.81-1.45 mmol/L). INTERVENTIONS:
The histological morphology showed the typical features of a conventional GCT. The immunoprecipitation analysis results were as follows H3.3G34W(-), H3.3G34R(-), H3.3G34V(-), and H3K36M(-). Sanger sequencing showed that the H3F3A and H3F3B gene mutations were wild type. The high-throughput gene sequencing results revealed the H3F3B gene mutations H3.3p.Gly35Trp and H3.3p.Val36Leu.OUTCOMES:
The patient was stable with no recurrence in 12 months follow-up. LESSONS Giant cell tumor of bone with H3F3B gene mutations is extremely rare. In the pathological diagnosis of bone tumors, we need to analyze clinical presentation, imaging features, histology, immunophenotype, and cytogenetic/molecular alterations, in order to get a correct diagnosis.
