چکیده
Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms represent a group of uncommon mesenchymal tumours with as yet undiscovered benign counterpart. Although perivascular have been described arising in most organ systems well soft tissue and bone, only small number reported the bladder. To date, there is no agreed system for predicting behaviour these tumours. We describe case neoplasm bladder 57-year-old male initially diagnosed on biopsy present review literature focussing pathological differential diagnosis importance key histological features conjunction broad immunohistochemical panel.

UNLABELLED Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms (PEComas) of the urinary bladder are extremely rare and the published cases were comprised predominantly of middle-aged patients. Herein, the authors present the first urinary bladder PEComa occurring in an adolescent. This 16-year-old Chinese girl present with a 3-year history of abdominal discomfort and a solid mass was documented in the urin...
متن کامل“Malignant” Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Neoplasm: Risk Stratification and Treatment Strategies
Purpose. Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are a rare collection of tumors characterized by a myomelanocytic phenotype, and PEComas occurring in "nonclassic" anatomic distributions are known as perivascular epithelioid cell tumor not otherwise specified (PEComa-NOS). This review aims to compile and analyze cases of PEComa-NOS in an effort to better define their natural history. Des...

Hepatic perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasm (PEComa) is a rare type of neoplasm derived from mesenchymal tumors that is often misdiagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), hepatic hemangioma or other liver malignancies. The clinical and histological characteristics of PEComa have yet to be fully documented. To optimize the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, a retrospective analysis wa...
