Abstract: Atypical Fibroxanthoma (AFX) presents as a rare but clinically significant spindle cell tumour of the skin, primarily affecting elderly individuals with a history of chronic sun exposure [1]. Recent advancements in diagnostic techniques and therapeutic modalities have enhanced our understanding and management of this neoplasm [2,3]. This review provides a thorough examination of the current knowledge regarding AFX, encompassing epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, histopathological characteristics, immunohistochemical findings, molecular pathology, differential diagnosis, treatment options, and prognosis. Additionally, emerging research areas and future directions in the field of AFX are discussed.
