<(F.): Fibroxanthome atypique: le plus souvent observée sur les zones exposées au soleil des sujets âgés, il s’agit d’une tumeur papuleuse souvent ulcérée. Il est considéré comme une tumeur de bas grade de malignité.
<(In.): Atypical fibroxanthoma: is a tumor that occurs primarily in older individuals after the skin of the head and neck has been damaged significantly by sun exposure and/or therapeutic radiation. Clinically, lesions usually are suggestive of malignancy because they arise rapidly (over just a few weeks or months) in skin in which other skin cancers have been found and treated. When this clinical impression is combined with highly anaplastic pathology, misdiagnosis can result in unnecessary and extensive surgery and radiation.
