Superficial Acral Fibromyxoma: A Rare Soft Tissue Tumor.

ABSTRACT

Superficial acral fibromyxoma is a rare clinical entity, first described in 2001. It is a soft tissue tumor with a predilection for the fingers and toes. Since it was described, few cases have been reported. We present a case of an 88-year-old male with a history of a slow-growing lump in his left great toe after local trauma. The patient underwent surgical excision, and pathologic analysis revealed the diagnosis of superficial acral fibromyxoma. Although an unusual diagnosis, surgeons should be aware of this myxoid tumor, which requires complete surgical excision and short-term follow-up to detect recurrence.
