Abstract

Adamantinoma of long bones is a slow-growing, low-grade primary malignant bone tumor. It is a rare entity and accounts for less than 1% of all primary bone tumors, and in most cases, it occurs in the mid-axis of the tibia of adolescents and young adults. In this report, we describe the case of a 55-year-old woman with a diagnosis of adamantinoma of the left tibia.
