摘要：
We report the case of a patient with giant cell tumor of the L5 vertebra. A 35-year-old female patient with giant cell tumor of the L5 vertebra was subjected to a combined treatment. Three years after treatment, there is no recurrence of the disease and no increase in the residual tumor’s size. Giant cell tumor of the L5 vertebra requires careful planning of treatment and close follow-up of the patient.
