Abstract
A fifteen-year-old male patient complains of pain in left hip and plain radiographs revealed an eccentric lesion in the epiphyseal region of femoral head. Lesion was excised by curettage with “g” bone graft through Ganz surgical safe dislocation of hip with trochanteric osteotomy. Histopathology report showed osteoclastoma. Full weight bearing after 3 months, with no recurrence after 2 years.
