The adamantinoma is a biphasic malignant tumor comprising 0.4% of all primary bone tumors and 23% debuts with pathological fractures associated with trauma that occurred months or years earlier. We report the case is presented of a twenty-year-old woman that debuted with a pathological fracture of the right tibia with a low-energy trauma. The radiological and histopathological studies confirmed the presence of an adamantinoma. This was treated surgically by wide resection of the tumor and reconstructed with an intercalary allograft bone segment that was fixed with a tibial intramedullary multidirectional antirotatory stability nail sustained further by a proximal plate. The radiological and clinical results were satisfactory.
