CONCLUSION :
AFH is a rare disease that is often misdiagnosed initially. Patients can
present with a clinical picture suggestive of other diseases, such as
popliteal cyst as in our patient. In our series, AFH occurred in
relatively older patient and was found in deep lesions. Although
patients with AFH seem to have excellent prognoses, the chances of local
recurrence and metastasis might be higher than initially expected.
Therefore, Surgeons must be aware of AFH and include it in clinical,
radiological, and histopathological differential diagnosis .
