Abstract

The authors report a case of malignant giant cell soft tissue tumor which appeared as a skin tumor of the thigh in a Tunisian women aged 17 years. Immunohistochemical study showed that the giant cells recognized KP1 antibody, while spindle interstitial cells reacted with anti-factor XIIIa antibody. The patient is alive and well eighteen months after large surgical removal. Two similar cases have been reported in the literature. Differential diagnosis, histogenesis and prognosis of this rare tumor are discussed.
