We report a case of Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath involving the ankle, wherein spin‐echo (T1‐ and T2‐weighted). gradient‐echo, and dynamic contrast‐enhanced sequences were performed, and the tumor was noted to be very vascular. To the best of our knowledge, the use of gradient‐echo sequences and the pattern of enhancement by time‐intensity curves has not been reported earlier.
