We report occurrence of a rare case of Giant Cell Tumor (GCT), in a 28-year old woman, arising from anterior arc of right 6th rib during pregnancy. It progressed rapidly during breast-feeding period, mimicking malignant bone tumor at delayed presentation.- Ashok Kumar, Manish Kumar Varshney, Vivek Trikha, Shishir Rastogi.
