Abstract

A malignant giant cell tumor of the bone (GCTB) is a rare primary malignant tumor classified as primary or secondary. Wide resection of the primary tumor is recommended for localized malignant GCTB, but the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy is unclear. A systematic review was performed to compare the mortality associated with wide resection with that of wide resection plus adjuvant chemotherapy for primary and secondary localized malignant GCTB. Among the 745 studies identified, 9 were included. A total of 112 cases of localized malignant GCTB were included, with 39 and 73 cases being primary and secondary malignant GCTB. In primary localized malignant GCTB, the mortality rates were 40% (6/15 patients) and 33% (8/24 patients) in the surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy and surgery-only groups, respectively. Overall pooled odds ratio was 1.07 (95% confidence interval, 0.26–4.37; p = 0.92). In secondary localized malignant GCTB, the mortality rates were 30.6% (11/36 patients) and 62.2% (23/37 patients) in the surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy and surgery-only groups, respectively. The overall pooled odds ratio was 0.31 (95% confidence interval, 0.10–0.95; p = 0.04). The effect of adjuvant chemotherapy remains unclear for primary localized malignant GCTB, but adjuvant chemotherapy improved the survival of patients with secondary localized malignant GCTB.
