Abstract

Adamantinoma is a malignant tumor of epithelial origin with a low incidence. This article aims to describe the clinical, radiology and anatomopatology diagnosis of a patient with adamantinoma of the tibia. A 60 years old female patient is presented with the diagnosis of adamantinoma located in the upper middle third of the right tibia. The most relevant clinical findings are pain and swelling in the anterior aspect of the middle and upper thirds of the right leg, imaging shows extensive intracortical osteolytic lesion with bone destruction at the cortical level of the anterior tibia with periosteal reaction and increased density of soft parts. The treatment carried out was excision and biopsy of the tumor, the histopathological results report a predominance of epithelial cells with squamous differentiation and non-extensive keratin production, in addition to dermosomes and monofilaments basement membrane, which allows it to be framed within the Adamantinomas of the appendicular skeleton.
