Malignant triton tumors, a rare subtype of neurofibrosarcomas, often lead to limb amputation decisions based on their characteristics.
A 25-year-old man was successfully treated for a large malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor using a combination of neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgical excision and a pedicled latissimus dorsi flap for reconstruction.
The case highlights the importance of effective treatment modalities, demonstrating that complete tumor removal and reconstructive surgery can effectively restore limb function and lead to long-term remission.
