Abstract  We report an unusual case of a recurrent giant cell tumor of the patella which presented with metastatic disease to the posterior mediastinal lymph nodes with no evidence of pulmonary metastases. The patient underwent chemotherapy with subsequent successful removal of the mediastinal mass. A review of the reported cases of mediastinal giant cell tumor metastases is provided.
