    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pathology
    • Skeletal System Neoplasms

    Context:

    • Ossifying fibromyxoid tumor (OFMT) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm with unknown origins.
    • OFMT typically presents as ovoid cells within a fibromyxoid stroma, often with a surrounding bony capsule.
    • It predominantly affects adult males and commonly occurs in the extremities, though other locations are possible.

    Purpose:

    • To report three newly diagnosed cases of ossifying fibromyxoid tumor (OFMT) in a specific geographic region.
    • To discuss the clinical presentation, diagnostic difficulties, and histopathological findings associated with OFMT.
    • To emphasize the importance of definitive biopsy for OFMT diagnosis, differentiating it from other soft tissue tumors.

    Summary:

    • Three cases of OFMT are presented: two in elderly females and one in a middle-aged male.
    • Clinical suspicion included lipoma and soft tissue sarcoma; preoperative cytology identified fibroblasts in one instance.
    • Histopathological examination following total tumor biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. One patient remains recurrence-free post-surgery.

    Impact:

    • Highlights the rarity and diagnostic challenges of OFMT, often misdiagnosed preoperatively.
    • Underscores the necessity of thorough histopathological analysis for accurate OFMT diagnosis.
    • Contributes to the understanding of OFMT presentation and management in a new patient cohort.
