title: Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma of anterior abdominal wall.
abstract: Low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a rare soft tissue tumor, having metastatic potential and high local recurrence rate despite its low grade histologic findings. This tumor of deep and subcutaneous soft tissues occurs in 3rd and 5th decade of life. Diagnosis of LGFMS remains problematic because of its bland looking histologic features that can be potentially confused with other benign or low grade soft tissue tumors. We report here a rare case report of low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma of anterior abdominal wall.
