Abstract

Adamantinoma is a rare, malignant biphasic tumor with varied morphological patterns.Adamantinoma mostly occurs in the second to fifth decade and is slightly more common in men than women.The onset is insidious, and its course shows a slow, progressive character.Radiography is the initial and most reliable imaging modality for adamantinoma of bones because of the tumor’s classic location and appearance on a plain radiograph.Present management modalitieswhich includeen blocresection (mostly intercalary resection) with limb salvage and limb reconstruction. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy have no established role. Amputation does not improve survival but may be advisable in cases with local recurrence and in cases with few large, recurrent lesions where en bloc resection is not possible.
Keywords: Adamantinoma, malignant biphasic tumor, management.
