“…It has a wide anatomical distribution with various locations, including arms, forearms, shoulders, and back [ 4 ]. Desmoplastic fibroblastoma in the ankle or foot is rare (14% of cases) [ 5 , 6 ]. The tumor size varies between 1 and 4 cm on average, and the reports have shown as large as 20 cm [ 3 ].…”

Introduction: Desmoplastic fibroblastoma is a rare, slow-growing benign soft tissue tumor. It has a wide anatomical distribution and mainly affects adult males. Fourteen percent of cases occur in the ankle or foot. Case Report: In this study, we report a rare location of desmoplastic fibroblastoma on the ankle of a 76-year-old female, discovered as a slowly growing mass. Discussion: Desmoplastic fibroblastoma is an anatomical and clinical entity. It appears macroscopically as a pseudocartilaginous structure and histologically as a stellate or spindle-shaped fibroblastic proliferation in a collagenous stroma. Conclusion: Desmoplastic fibroblastoma has anatomical specificities and should still be clearly distinguished from certain malignant tumors. Keywords: Ankle, benign tumor, fibroblastoma.

Desmoplastic fibroma is a rare benign fibrogenic, locally aggressive, primary bone tumor. It is the intraosseous counterpart of soft tissue aggressive fibromatosis. The lesion may very rarely appear as a superficial bone lesion arising from the periosteum; in such cases, a soft tissue mass with changes in the adjacent bone is evident. Periosteal lesions are very rare in the literature; diagnosis is usually based on the radiographic findings, and histological proof of the tumor origin is missing. A periosteal desmoplastic fibroma of the distal tibial metaphysis in a 3-year-old boy is presented. Radiographic investigation included plain radiographs and computed tomography imaging. Both demonstrated a soft tissue lesion involving the superficial bone tissues with non-aggressive looking borders and a pressure effect with a sclerotic rim in the bone. The lesion was excised, and the surgical as well as the histological findings indicated the diagnosis of a desmoplastic fibroma of bone arising from the periosteum. No recurrence was detected 5 years after surgery.
