Adamantinoma, constituting a minute fraction of primary bone tumors, poses a diagnostic challenge due to its ambiguous histogenesis. This report outlines a distinctive case involving a 27-year-old female with a history of right tibial adamantinoma, presenting with bilateral pulmonary emboli and metastasis to the ovaries and pelvic lymph nodes. Following en bloc resection five years earlier, the patient underwent debulking surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPIC) and intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) as a palliative measure. The procedure achieved substantial pelvic tumor reduction, and subsequent follow-ups indicated a favorable postoperative trajectory. This case underscores the rarity of adamantinoma metastasis to the ovaries and pelvis, being the first reported instance, shedding light on the challenges and potential benefits of a multimodal palliative approach. Further research is warranted to refine treatment strategies for metastatic adamantinoma and enhance patient outcomes.
