Abstract: 

Giant cell tumours of the femoral head and neck treated by primary treatment by curettage and bone grafting. But recurrence within years. Necessitating the likelihood of recurrence followingcurettage and bone grafting, particularly at thisanatomical site, is stressed, and the possibility thathip replacement arthroplasty be considered theprimary treatment of choice as per literature.
