Tibial adamantinoma with local recurrence and pulmonary metastasis: report of a case with histocytologic findings.

Background: Adamantinoma is a rare primary bone neoplasm of low malignant potential that may recur or metastasize in a mall percentage of patients. The myriad histologic patterns may cause difficulty in distinguishing this tumor from other primary or metastatic neoplasms. The cytomorphologic findings of fine needle aspiration biopsy were reported previously in only a small number of cases.
