Tendon sheath giant cell tumor (TCGGT) is a benign soft tissue tumor that usually affects the tendons of the hand, but rarely affects the foot. It mainly affects young adults, but can occur between the ages of 10 and 60. It is a predominantly female tumor. Anatomopathological examination remains the key to diagnosis and prognosis. Treatment is based on surgery with complete removal of the tumour. We report a case of a giant cell tumor of the flexor sheaths localized in the sole of the foot.
