Abstract Adamantinomas of long bones are rare primary low-grade malignant tumours composed of cells with epithelial and fibrous characteristics. Local recurrence, though scarce, occurs 5-15 years after the onset of diagnosis. We report a case of local recurrence of an adamantinoma localised in tibia, along with the presence of two lung metastases, 24 years after diagnosis and surgical therapy of the primary tumour. The local recurrence and the lung metastases were removed surgically. The patient remains free of the disease for 3 years.

Abstract
Adamantinoma is a rare tumour of long bones whose pathogenesis is unknown. It occurs most commonly in the tibia. Although locally aggressive, recurrences are common after resection with metastasis in 10-20% of cases, most commonly to the lungs and rarely to the lymphnodes. In our case a secondary was detected 4 years after resection of primary tumor.
