Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of low malignant potential often misdiagnosed clinically. It typically occurs in the superficial soft tissues of the extremities in children and young adults. It is characterized by recurrences and rarely metastases. Surgery remains the mainstay of management. Here, we present a rare case report of AFH in a 65-year-old male diagnosed using fine needle aspiration as spindle cell sarcoma. The patient underwent wide local excision. The patient is under follow-up. There is no evidence of metastases, and the patient is disease free three-years post-excision.
血管样纤维组织细胞瘤(AFH)是一种恶性潜能较低的罕见软组织肿瘤,临床上常被误诊。它通常发生于儿童和青年的四肢浅表软组织。其特点是易复发,很少发生转移。手术仍然是主要的治疗方法。在此,我们报告一例罕见病例,一名65岁男性被诊断为AFH,最初通过细针穿刺活检误诊为梭形细胞肉瘤。该患者接受了广泛局部切除。患者正在接受随访。目前没有转移的证据,患者术后三年无疾病复发。
