Abstract

Giant cell fibroblastoma (GCF) is a rare soft tissue tumor of intermediate group occurring most commonly in children. Unusually it has been known to occur in adults and very rarely to involve patients older than 60 years of age. We report a rare case of giant cell fibroblastoma in a 72 year old female patient Pathologist need to be aware of the occurrence of this rare entity in advanced age and its morphology in order not to mistake it for a high grade sarcoma.
