Abstract
We present a rare case of a fibromatosis-like myofibroblastic tumour of the forearm with infiltration of muscular, neural, and vascular structures. This is a rare and transitional type of myofibroblastic tumour, and we emphasise important aspects of diagnosis, clinical features, interdisciplinary management, and differential diagnoses.Keywords
