Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma is an uncommon soft tissue neoplasm with potential for recurrence and rare metastasis. The majority of cases are painless, slow growing and occur in superficial extremities of young adults. Here we report a case of Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma in a 28-year-old male patient presenting as a slowly growing painful mass in the groin region. This case is of particular interest due to its uncommon site of presentation and its misdiagnosis as lymph nodal lesion on radiology. Although it is a rare entity, it should be considered in differential diagnosis of soft tissue mass in a young patient.
血管外皮细胞瘤样纤维组织细胞瘤是一种不常见的软组织肿瘤，具有复发和罕见转移的潜力。大多数病例无疼痛，生长缓慢，发生于年轻人的四肢浅表部位。本文报道了 1 例 28 岁男性患者，其在腹股沟区出现缓慢生长的疼痛性肿块，诊断为血管外皮细胞瘤样纤维组织细胞瘤。该病例具有特殊意义，因为其表现部位不常见，影像学上误诊为淋巴结病变。尽管它是一种罕见的实体瘤，但在年轻患者的软组织肿块鉴别诊断中应考虑到它。
