Giant cell tumor of the distal phalanx of a toe is rather unusual. We report an unusual case of giant cell tumor arising at the distal phalanx of the left biphalangeal fifth toe in a 13-year-old boy. This was treated successfully with curettage and packing with bone substitution. Copyright © 2011 American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
