Denosumab has recently become an important part of the treatment regime for spinal giant cell tumors of the bone (GCTB). Its use has significantly reduced the risk of surgery and postoperative complications in patients with spinal GCTB. However, the use of denosumab has not yet been optimized to reap the maximum benefits. Here, we have reported the case of a patient who was treated with denosumab in combination with excision and scraping for GCTB of the T10 vertebrae, which achieved good tumor control and no recurrence at the 2-year postoperative follow-up. We have also reviewed the case in the light of relevant literature as well as presented our ideas and recommendations for the optimal use of denosumab. |
