Abstract


Total en-bloc calcanectomy was performed in a 36-year-old male patient with a giant cell tumor in his right calcaneus. A year after surgery, the patient had no complaints, and a good functional result was obtained. He was able to return to his work. No local or metastatic recurrences were encountered.
