Adamantinoma : The first report from Syria

Adamantinoma is rare, representing less than 1 % of all primary bone tumors. It is a slow growing low grade tumor which is often clinically, radiologically and histologically mistaken for many other tumors. In this report, we present a case of Adamantinoma in a 17-year-old Syrian adolescent. The patient presented with pain and swelling anterior aspect of his left leg for last six months. We analyzed the clinical, radiographical and pathological characteristics of our patient, which helped us to reach the final diagnosis. The aim of this report is to document the presence of Adamantinoma in Syria to help other Syrian physicians considering this disease in the differential diagnosis if they face similar presentations.
