Differential diagnosis of pleomorphic malign fibrous histiocytoma and atypical fibroxanthoma sometimes may cause a diagnostic dilemma, because of their similar histopatologic and immunohistochemical features. Atypical fibroxanthomas rarely recur and metastasize. Tumor necrosis, depth of invasion, vascular invasion and high recurrence rate are important features which were detected in metastasizing case. A 65-year-old male patient who had a rapidly growing ulcerated nodular tumor on his right auricle exceeding 3 cm in diameter was presented here. In these tumors, to which were applied various therapeutic approaches according to the patients' condition, we discussed the importance of tumor size in differential diagnosis and giving appropriate name.Keywords: Pleomorphic malign fibrous histiocytoma,
