Abstract Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a benign but locally aggressive bone tumor which usually involves the end of long bones. This occurs in both benign and malignant forms. Primary GCTs of soft tissue resembling osseous GCTs are uncommon but with distinct entities and is a rare benign tumor of low malignant potential. Only a few cases are reported in medical literature and much few cases involving ear. There has been no reporting of Indian studies till date, and hence in this article, we report for the first time in India GCT of pinna which is a rare condition.
