Giant cell tumour (GCT) accounts for 5% of all primary bone tumours. GCT in the distal third of ulna is quite rare. We present a case of recurrent GCT in distal third of ulna with malignant features involving tenosynovium. The case was treated by wide resection of tumour and on follow up, patient recovered well with no evidence of further recurrence. Considering the features, according to the literature reviewed, is the first case of its type.
