مستخلص: Primary giant cell tumors of soft tissues (GCT-ST) are rare neoplasms that share histopathological and immunohistochemical characteristics with osseous giant cell tumors. While GCT-ST generally exhibits a benign progression and can affect individuals of various ages, older patients may face a higher risk of recurrence and aggressive disease progression. In this case report, we present the case of a 63-year-old woman who experienced recurrent GCT-ST nine months after the complete excision of an initially localized tumor. Despite the mainstay treatment of GCT-ST being tumor-free margin surgical excision, this case demonstrates the occurrence of recurrences. The etiology of recurrence in GCT-ST remains unclear, highlighting the need for further studies and careful patient follow-up to prevent potential complications such as lung metastasis or widespread metastasis. Thus, this report aims to raise awareness of these tumors and emphasize the importance of diligent patient follow-up to facilitate early identification and management, thereby preventing potential complications such as lung or widespread metastasis.
