Small cell osteosarcoma (OS) is a rare histological variant of OS that poses unique diagnostic difficulties. We present a case of a 10-year-old child who underwent fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) from a mass in the right thigh. The cytological findings were those of a malignant small round cell tumor, closest to small cell OS. The FNAC findings were confirmed on histopathology.
小细胞骨肉瘤是骨肉瘤中一种罕见的组织学变异类型，诊断存在独特困难。我们报告一例10岁儿童，其右大腿肿块接受了细针穿刺细胞学检查（FNAC）。细胞学检查结果为恶性小圆形细胞肿瘤，最符合小细胞骨肉瘤。组织病理学检查证实了FNAC结果。
