Abstract
Malignant histiocytofibroma is a group of tumors developed from primitive mesenchymal cells with both partial fibroblastic and histiocytic differentiation with collagen production and phagocytosis activity. Histiocytofibroma develops mainly in the muscles of the lower and upper limbs and is usually deep, but may be superficial subcutaneous localization, bone localization is much rarer. We report a case of malignant histiocytofibroma of the anterior tibial tuberosity in a young adult.
