ABSTRACT
Introduction:
We encountered a unique case of a patient with two distinct tumors coexisting in the same thigh. To the best of our knowledge, this combination of tumors in the same anatomical region has not been previously described in the literature. Case Report This case report describes a 38-year-old Caucasian male with a painless mass in his right thigh, which was later diagnosed as a hybrid tumor composed of low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma and sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcoma, as well as a second tumor, which was diagnosed as a hibernoma. The patient underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgical excision, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy and treatment for metastatic recurrence.Conclusion:
The rarity of this case highlights the need for interdisciplinary collaboration and further investigations into the behavior and management of hybrid tumors. This case also underscores the importance of an accurate histological diagnosis aided by immunohistochemistry and molecular analyses.
